Grief, Joy, & Gratitude

3:10worship, christian, christian pop 2025-10-24

Description

Grief, it turns out, isn't a storm – it's more like the wind that roams wherever it pleases. First it knocks you down, then suddenly it teaches you to breathe more evenly. Here, you don't cry into a pillow - you plant a garden from memory, water it with gratitude, and wait for something warm to grow from the coldest place within. Pain isn't hidden; it's transformed into music, into light, into a quiet "thank you" to those who are no longer with us. And it seems that loss doesn't steal love - it simply makes it eternal, in every breath, in every note, in the words: "Bless the Lord, O my soul."

Lyrics and translation

Original

Grief is such a windy road.

You can try to keep it steady, but it moves when it gets ready.

They say it's love without a home.

'Cause it hurts to feel the distance, to speak of you in past tense.

I could let my heart grow bitter and cold.

But I will bless the Lord, oh my soul.

Oh, what a miracle.

Where I used to grow resentment is a garden of redemption.

And now I'm living off the seeds you've sown.

And this fruit will never wither.

Your legacy forever etched in stone.

Yeah, it's in my bones.

I will bless the Lord, oh my soul.

Oh my soul. Ooh.

I bless the

Lord, oh my soul. Ooh.

I will bless the Lord, oh my soul.

Yeah. Bless the Lord, oh my soul.

Oh. I will bless the Lord, bless the Lord.

When I'm on my face, on my lowest day, and I start to question.

When it's time to lay flowers on the grave, I'm still gon' bless Him.

Because amazing grace came and made a way for the lost and wretched.

So when I'm old and gray, past my golden days, I'm still gon' bless the Son of suffering, Lord of hosts.

I know you'll welcome me, my Father, with the sound of joy and laughter.

My grieving heart is filled with hope.

For the day we're back together, with a song we'll sing forever. This

I know, it won't get old.

Singing, "Bless the Lord, oh my soul. "

And we'll take a stroll on the streets of gold.

Singing, "Bless the Lord, oh my soul. "
