a song that means a lot to me

There is a christian praise song that I have loved for years, "Blessed Be Your Name". The kids and I were listening to a CD on the way home from Tennessee last Sunday that this song is on. I am moved every time I hear it. Even for the thousandth time, it gets to me. We sing it in church sometimes. Some of the lyrics are:

blessed be Your name

in the land that is plentiful

where the streams of abundance flow

blessed be Your name

when I'm found in the desert place

though I walk through the wilderness

blessed be Your name

when the sun's shining down on me

when the world's all as it should be

blessed be Your name

on the road marked with suffering

though there's pain in the offering

blessed be Your name

It is so easy for me to praise in times of good, but it makes me think, do I still praise and am I still thankful in troubled times? Our music minister had a brother pass away recently; he still came and sang and led the congregation that very next day, before heading out of town for the funeral. Still gave thanks, still praising God. It's difficult to put this into the words that are in my heart, but I just pray that I will be one of those who "Blesses His Name" when my "road is marked with suffering". Make sense?
