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
*Count your many blessings, see what God hath done
[*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
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
