10,000 Reasons - Matt Redman

This song is infiltrating our home!  I listened to it on www.godtube.com one day (4 weeks ago on a Saturday afternoon before and when Vanessa smashed her head,this song was actually playing when she hit her head, the lyrics "whatever may pass and whatever lies before you" and *SMACK* went her forehead) and all the kids loved it, and asked to hear it (and see it, the video shows the band singing it) over and over again.  I think Violet and Calvin have almost the whole song memorized.  Calvin randomly sings it throughout his day and when we travel in the car he asks to hear it.

Vanessa even catches on, and sings "Bess ya Yord, O my soul...mumble mumble his howy name"  and giggles.

The lyrics:

"10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord)"

[Chorus]
Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name

The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning
It's time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass, and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes

[Chorus]
Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name

You're rich in love, and You're slow to anger
Your name is great, and Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find

[Chorus]
Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name

And on that day when my strength is failing
The end draws near and my time has come
Still my soul will sing Your praise unending
Ten thousand years and then forevermore

[Chorus x2]
Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name

Jesus, I'll worship Your holy name
Lord, I'll worship Your holy name

Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name
Jesus, I'll worship Your holy name
I'll worship Your holy name
