Count Your Blessings

Count Your Blessings

words by Johnson Oatman, music by Edwin



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 has done.



Count your blessings, name them one by one

Count your blessings, see what God has done.

Count your blessings, name them one by one

Count your many blessings, see what God has done.



Are you ever burdened with a load of care?

Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?

Count your 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 many blessings, see what God has done.

We love to sing this one in church services.

This one is really good, my brother in Christ.

Great song!

Usually, I not only count my blessings but realize how Jesus, and even many others on this planet that have suffered more than me, and I realize that I am not the most unfortunate.

God blesses us in so many ways.. Most of the time we don't even notice..
