Name that Tune!

I am not a person who likes old time hymns - but this song came to my mind and I just had to paint it...

When upon life's billows You are tempest tossed when you are discouraged
thinking all is lost

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

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 home on high

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 has done
