When trials and tribulations
Crowd into your lives
Don't resist, but welcome them
As blessings in disguise
And know they've come to test you
And so produce in you
The quality of endurance
And the hope to see you through

So count it all joy
Don't let 'em get you down
Count it all joy
You're standing on solid ground
Count it all joy
Count it all joy

Don't resist this chastening
Nor faint in this reproof
For in this very scourging
God show His love for you
A broken and a contrite heart
The Lord does not despise
And these painful times of struggling
Are blessings in disguise

So count it all joy
Don't let 'em get you down
Count it all joy
You're standing on solid ground
Count it all joy
Count it all joy
(Joy, joy, joy, joy)

Count it all joy
Don't let 'em get you down
Count it all joy
You're standing on solid ground
Count it all joy

Count it all joy
Don't let 'em get you down
Count it all joy
You're standing on solid ground
Count it all joy...
