He had family, friends, and money
loved the Lord with all his heart.
So the devil went to God and said
old Job would fall apart.
If you should take away his fortune,
let me put him to the test.
Soon poor Job had lost his health,
and wealth and all the rest.
And as his troubles added up,
he fell down on his knees
and said Lord I've still got one thing,
and that's your love for me.
You've got to count your blessings
you'll find one if you try.
Count on the Lord and watch that blessing multiply
Those might have, could have, should have been
are nothing but distressing.
When your down and out its time to count your blessings
You may go through hard times when you fall upon despair
Just remember your surrounded by his blessings everywhere
Its a neighbors helping hand or in the sunshine of a smile
One blessing leads to one more, you'll be counting for a while
Its best to look at what you have, forget what you have not
And just learn a lesson from old Job give thanks for what you've got
You've got to count your blessings
you'll find one if you try.
Count on the Lord and watch that blessing multiply
Those might have, could have, should have been
are nothing but distressing.
When your down and out its time to count your blessings
One risen savior, one perfect love
One holy promise, one is enough
You've got to count your blessings
you'll find one if you try.
Count on the Lord and watch that blessing multiply
Those might have, could have, should have been
are nothing but distressing.
When your down and out its time to count your blessings
Count your blessings
Name them one by one
Count your blessings
