They were probably still saying the name YHWH when this was originally sung, which would have the meaning:
praise the name YHWH
Blessed be the name YHWH
Note: For the Jew the Name, hShem, is a way of referring to God without saying YHWH.
To praise the LORD is the task of all creation:
The heavens declare the glory of God,
and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
2 Day to day pours out speech,
and night to night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no speech, nor are there words,
whose voice is not heard.
4 Their voice goes out through all the earth,
(Psalm 19:1–4, ESV)
Let everything that has breath praise the LORD!
Praise the LORD!
(Psalm 150:6, ESV)
Let all that breathes praise the LORD.
Hallelujah.
(Psalm 150:6, JPS1985)
כֹּ֣ל הַ֭נְּשָׁמָה תְּהַלֵּ֥ל יָ֗הּ הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ
(Psalm 150:6, BHS2003)

יָ֗הּ
is imperfect, which would tend to give it a future sense, except that it is jussive, which makes it like an imperative. Thus, the idea is that it should be continuous and not a single act.
