 Scholars have debated the identity of specific sections of the hymns as it is unclear what the text signifies in terms of organization of the different sections.However, it is clear to many that the opening line "I thank Thee, O Lord" "אודכה אדוני" is indicative of the beginning of an individual hymn.There are also other opening statements used by the Hymns such as "Blessed be Thou, O Lord", "I thank you, Lord", and "I thank you, my God".
