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.
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.
2
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.
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.
3
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 Lord on high.
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.
4
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,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

Count your {my} blessing not my achievements, God is faithfully dependable, that makes me wonder and held in total bewilderment!

Sang this song this morning and I can only praise the Lord for His goodness and blessings. I can't even count the blessings, they are many. I pray that I also bless others. Glory to God. A song in my heart today.

Thank you and may God bless you. This hymn has blessed me through out my life as early as 8 years when I had to flee from my home leaving my mother and dad at that early age. God put this hymn as one of my anchor.

What a beautiful hymn to thank the merciful God who daily loads us with blessings. There is nothing that is bigger than the life you have given us today dear Lord.
For it is of Your mercies that we are not consumed, Your compassion does not fail. Thank You Jesus.
