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.
Refrain
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.
Refrain
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.
Refrain
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.
Refrain
