[Verse 1]
C                       Em
 Ran inside the master's house
C                        Em
 With these heavy words to sound
        F
Mighty winds had struck
                      Am      G
His children all had died
C                     Em
 Fellow servants on my left
C                     Em
 They had also told of death
           F
The master tears his robe
                    Am
Quickly shaves his head
              G
He falls and says


[Chorus]
F
 "Blessed be the name of God
                          C
You can give and You can take away
G
 Take away
F
 Naked I came from the womb
                      C
Naked I'll return to dust one day
    G
To dust one day"
           Am            F                C
Who's this man praising God when all was gone?
         Am                 F               C
For I would have cursed the One who did me wrong


[Verse 2]
C                       Em
 Sores and boils follow next
C                        Em
 I would tend to his distress
         F
Now his wife draws near
                       Am
And mocks my master's faith
            G
But he remains


[Chorus]
F
 "Blessed be the name of God
                          C
You can give and You can take away
G
 Take away
F
 Naked I came from the womb
                      C
Naked I'll return to dust one day
    G
To dust one day"
           Am            F                C
Who's this man praising God when all was gone?
         Am                 F               C
For I would have cursed the One who did me wrong


[Bridge]
E                              Am
 And every day I thought he'd finally give up
        F                                 C              G
But he did not sin, he did not curse the Father that he loved
E                            Am
 How could he hold onto the sovereignty of God?
           F                         C                    G
If it were I to be the victim surely I would doubt God's love
F
 I would doubt God's love


[Chorus]
F
 "Blessed be the name of God
                          C
You can give and You can take away
G
 Take away
F
 "Blessed be the name of God
                          C
You can give and You can take away
G
 Take away
F
 Naked I came from the womb
                      C
Naked I'll return to dust one day
    G
To dust one day"
           Am            F                C
Who's this man praising God when all was gone?
         Am                 F               C
For I would have cursed the One who did me wrong
