909: When Upon Life's Billows You Are Tempest Tossed

Meter:   6.5.6.5.D.
Book:   2015 Song Book
Chapter:   Our Response to God, Life and Service, Testimony

1.
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 keep singing as the days go by.

3.
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.
