Bless the Lord
Emmanuel Kids: Celebrating the Grace and Love of the Lord
Lyrics
The Lord is gracious and compassionate
The Lord is characterized by grace and compassion
He's slow to anger and He's rich in love
He is patient in anger and abundant in love
He keeps His promises, He's always good to us
God faithfully keeps His promises and is consistently good to us
So we sing, we sing, we sing
Expressing joy and gratitude through singing
The Lord is gracious and compassionate
Reiteration of God's attributes and the joyful response of singing
He's slow to anger and He's rich in love
-He keeps His promises, He's always good to us
-So we sing, we sing, we sing
-As high as heaven is above the earth
Describing the vastness of God's love and the removal of sins
So high is His great love for us
-As far as east is from the west
-He's taken our sins away
-As high as heaven is above the earth
-So high is His great love for us
-As far as east is from the west
-He's taken our sins away
-Bless the Lord O my soul
Calling upon the soul to bless and praise the Lord wholeheartedly
All that's in me shouts His name
-He is worthy of our praise
-Bless the Lord
-Bless the Lord O my soul
Continuation of exhortation to bless and praise the Lord with all that is within
All that's in me shouts His name
-He is worthy of our praise
-Bless the Lord

Repeated emphasis on God's attributes and the response of joyful singing
He's slow to anger and He's rich in love

-As high as heaven is above the earth
Reiteration of the immense love of God and the forgiveness of sins
So high is His great love for us
-As far as east is from the west
-He's taken our sins away
-As high as heaven is above the earth
-So high is His great love for us
-As far as east is from the west
-He's taken our sins away
