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.
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 be 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. Money cannot buy
Your reward in heaven, nor your
home on high.
So, amid the conflict whether
great or small,
Do not be discouraged, God is
over all;
Count your many blessings, angels
will attend,
Help and comfort give you to your
journey’s end.
Count your blessings, name them
one by one,
Count your blessings, see what
God hath done!
Count your blessings, name them
one by one,
Count your many blessings, see what God hath done.
Lyrics by Johnson Oatman, Jr.
