Count Your Blessings |
|
When upon life’s billows |
You are tempest tossed |
When you are discouraged |
Thinking all is lost |
Count your many blessings |
Name them one by one |
And it will surprise you |
What the Lord hath done |
|
Count your blessings, name them one by one |
Count your blessings, see what God hath done |
Count your blessings, name them one by one |
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done |
|
Are you ever burdened |
With a load of care? |
Does the cross seem heavy |
You are called to bear? |
Count your many blessings |
Every doubt will fly |
And you will keep singing |
As the days go by. |
|
When you look at others |
With their lands and gold |
Think that Christ has promised you |
His wealth untold; |
Count your many blessings. |
Wealth can never buy |
Your reward in heaven |
Nor your home on high. |
|
So, amid the conflict |
Whether great or small |
Do not be disheartened |
God is over all; |
Count your many blessings |
Angels will attend |
Help and comfort give you |
To your journey’s end |
|
