Don Moen - Blessed Be The Name Lyrics

“Blessed Be the Name” is a concise call to honor the Lord through united praise. Its central declaration repeats God’s blessed name and immediately gives the reason for that praise: He is worthy to be adored. Rather than developing a long narrative, the song stays with a single confession, allowing repetition to emphasize reverence and gratitude. The mention of lifted hands gives the worship a visible expression, joining inward devotion with a communal act of praise.

The phrase “in one accord” presents the gathered singers as sharing one purpose before God. That unity supports the song’s simple structure, in which the same words can be learned quickly and sung together. The lyric closely echoes biblical language that blesses the Lord’s name and calls worshipers to lift holy hands. Its message is direct: God’s worthiness is sufficient reason for praise, and His name becomes the focus around which the congregation’s voices and actions are joined.
