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.
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.
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.

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 Lord 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.

Once again after 3 years am back to comment on this song. The Lord has allowed me to enter 2017. What a blessing. This song as I mentioned last time encourages me so much. It helps me defeat the devil as I start to count the many blessings the Lord has given me. The devil has been reminding me of how I have been struggling to build my personal house but that cannot be compared to the other blessings the Lord has given me for example I never ever remember being sick. Praise God. I have over 1000 small boys and girls I share fellowship with and are very close to me. What a blessing. I have a wonderful family and a good job. As the song goes they are too many to mention.

The Lord is awesome. We human beings care much about those things we don't have and forget those things we have. Let us learn to appreciate Him for what He has done for us an wait patiently for those He has not done. The Lord will not be too late, neither will He come early but will surely come to time.

I had a dream this morning that I was in a good and cheering mood and in my dream, I was singing this song alone.
Actually, I was trusting and praying to God for a breakthrough. But the song I sang in my dream, reminds me that I have been ungrateful and I haven't shown enough gratitude to God, despite all He has done for me within a very short time.
