Count Your Blessings

Opening song of the Relief Society Broadcast:

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 has 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. Count your many blessings see what God 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 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 mnay blessins; money cannot buy Your reward in heaven nor your home on high.

Here's the part where I started crying:

So amid the conflict, whether great of 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.

President Monson also talked about gratitude in General Conference on Sunday... I think I might need to start working on my gratitude blog again... I could always use those angels attending some help and comfort :)
