count your many {Blessings}... . . . .

3 blessings that i'm lucky enough to have:

~Danny Baer as my best friend
~the gospel
~BYU Hawaii

... . . . you know that feeling you get,
when there's stuff you want to say,
and feelings you want to get out.. . .
but they've been said over and over,
and being repetitive just isn't fun,
it doesn't make things better,
and it's certainly not attractive,
and you know it?

... . . you know that feeling you get,
when there's something you want so bad
you'd pray for days to get it?

that's me today.

but nonetheless.. i have to keep reminding myself
to count my blessings.

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.

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 keep 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. Wealth can never buy
Your reward in heaven, nor your home on high.

So, amid the conflict whether great or small,
Do not be disheartened, God is over all;
Count your many blessings, angels will attend,
Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end.


i love the gospel.

Thanks for posting Johnson Oatman's fine gospel song. And let's keep on counting our blessings. We'll never run out of reasons to praise the Lord!

If you enjoy learning about our hymns and their authors, I invite you to check out my daily blog on the subject, Wordwise Hymns.
