Blessed Be Thy Name - Mississippi John Hurt

If you don’t like your sister, don’t you carry her name abroad

Blessed be the name of the Lord

Yes, take her in your bosom and carry her home to God

Blessed be the name of the Lord

Oh, blessed be the name

Blessed be the name

Blessed be the name of the Lord

Oh, blessed be the name

Blessed be the name

Oh, blessed be the name of the Lord

If you don’t like your brother, don’t you carry the name abroad

Blessed be the name of the Lord

Just take him in your bosom and carry him home to God

Oh, blessed be the name of the Lord

If you don’t like your preacher, don’t you carry his name abroad

Blessed be the name of the Lord

Just take him in your bosom and carry him home to God

Oh, blessed be the name of the Lord

If you don’t like your deacon, don’t you carry his name abroad

Blessed be the name of the Lord

Just take him in your bosom and carry him home to God

Oh, blessed be the name of the Lord
