Good day everyone. I am really picking this song today to use as my entering song into this competition.
Over the years I do reflect on what benefits and blessings have I ever gotten as been a child of God. My dedications and also times I neglected myself some funny life pleasure at the expenses of my Faith. I keep on holding to the faith that I started questioning.
I never cared to consider countless times God has been faithful and also been keeping me. I thought been rich or wearing of expensive things was a feature of been bless by God.
As my profession requires me to stay in the hospital almost half a month, I got to realize without been told that God has been blessing me with Good health, happiness and many more I can't count.
One way or the other the Lord has been faithful and blessed us. What ever you have passed through or passing through, surely I want to let you know that God's has always been there and he is always and he will always be there.
Your existence it's self is another blessing from God. The fact you don't pay for oxygen or be on live support and all. Thinking of everything all combined together prompted me to pick this song to share with everyone.
This to remind us that surely what ever we are passing through, before we start been angry with God, we have to view and check how He has blessed and kept us. When we feel we can't push on, he is there to guide and help us all.
Lyrics
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.
Refrain:
Count your blessings, name them one by one;
Count your blessings, see what God hath done;
Count your blessings, name them one by one;
Count your many blessings, see what God 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, ev'ry doubt will fly,
And you will be singing as the days go by.
[Refrain]
3 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. [Refrain]
4 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.
[Refrain]
