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.

Recounting from where I started and where I am today I came to the conclusion that there are many blessings God has given me that MONEY can not buy.

I was just reflecting on how poor and unfaithfuly I have worked with the Lord. Then I heard this song in my spirit. Wasn't thinking about it but it just came up in the minutest way. I had to practically stop whatever I was doing or thinking about to clearly hear what song I was slightly hearing. God is too faithful no matter our imperfections. Here he is, telling me that I should look around me to see his goodness as it has to do with our relationship and his blessings that surround me in spite of my shortcomings. What a loving Father. Thank You Lord; thank You Jesus!

I first heard this song when I was in college year 1994, my computer instructor played the song and we listened carefully because we wrote a reflection after, since that day I never forgot the song, It reminds me of God's goodness in my life🥰
