 Worship Wednesday is a regular feature on Leveraging Life where I share with you a song and a video. This may be something familiar to you or something entirely new. When possible I will provide the story behind the song so you learn more about the message and what inspired the artist to create this song of worship. My hope is the song and the story behind it leads to or deepens your relationship with God. You can view all the previous Worship Wednesday selections by clicking here. 

10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)

Matt Redman

 Have you ever heard a song you would classify as timeless?

It’s the kind of song that your great-great grandparents would have been singing as kids a hundred years ago and the kind of song your great-great grandchildren might be singing a hundred years from now. Ten Thousand Reasons – Bless the Lord by Matt Redman is just that song. Ten Thousand Reasons is a modern day hymn with its roots in Psalm 103 which reminds all of us God’s Grace and Mercy.

I love how we are reminded to sing God’s praises like never before; as each new day dawns, through whatever lies ahead, and even when the end is near and our time has come. I hope you enjoy the song and Matt’s story of how this song came together.

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

I’ll worship Your holy name
