Lyrics

GWhen upon life's Cbillows you are Gtempest D7tossed,

GWhen you are disCcouraged, thinking Gall is D7lost,

GCount your many Cblessings, name them Gone by Emone,

And it will surCprise you what the GLord hath D7done.

Chorus

GCount your blessings, Cname them one by one,

GCount your blessings, D7see what God hath done!

GCount your blessings, Cname them one by one,

GCount your blessings, D7see what God hath Gdone.

Verse 2

GAre you ever Cburdened with a Gload of D7care?

GDoes the cross seem Cheavy you are Gcalled to D7bear?

GCount your many Cblessings, every Gdoubt will Emfly,

And you will keep Csinging as the Gdays go D7by.

Verse 3

GWhen you look at Cothers with their Glands and D7gold,

GThink that Christ has Cpromised you His Gwealth unD7told;

GCount your many Cblessings, money Gcannot Embuy

Your reward in Cheaven, nor your Ghome on D7high.
