Bless the Lord!

This is such a joyful scripture and always leads me to singing the chorus, based on it, that came out when I was a teen.  I believe the Psalmist was filled with love and gratitude for His God when he penned this one.  

It is a short scripture but it is full of what lies in my heart as a believer.  My Lord is holy and is worthy to be praised and blessed regardless of what circumstance I am in.  My Lord is the creator of my soul and all that is within me, how can I do any less than to bless His name?  

I've heard it said before, if you can't praise Him here, how do you propose to do it for an eternity?
