Contemporary Christian singer/songwriter Matt Redman released 10,000 Reasons, his latest album in 2011, but it’s only now that the title track is starting to pick up at Christian AC, an accomplishment considering that the live performance of the song is the version receiving notice from Christian AC programmers. 10,000 Reasons is a worshipful ballad that sings of God’s goodness and grace. The way Redman structured the track is almost hymn-like – the Catholics will really enjoy adding this one to their Mass repertoire – and its congregational worship potential makes it a ready and easy, almost automatic, addition to any church’s worship arsenal. Whether stadium or small church, I think 10,000 Reasons will do well in a church setting, and should actually be a serious consideration, because 10,000 Reasons is special. More people should be hearing 10,000 Reasons.
10,000 Reasons Lyrics
Matt Redman
Bless the lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His holy Name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I 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
Bless the lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His holy Name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I 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
10,000 reasons for my heart to find
Bless the lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His holy Name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I worship Your holy Name
And on that day when my strength is failing
The end draws near and my time has come
Soon my soul will sing Your praise un-ending
10,000 years and there forever more
Bless the lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His holy Name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I worship Your holy Name
Bless the lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His holy Name
I worship Your holy Name
I worship Your holy Name
I worship Your holy Name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I worship your holy name
I worship your holy name
I worship your holy name
