I sat down to count up my woes,
Number them one by one.
Yet, when I’d finished, what I found
Was not what I’d begun.
I set out counting what went wrong,
Which led to what went right.
It took me all day to add up
Each blessing and delight.
Yes, I still struggled with the world,
It’s been a rough few days,
But I am grateful to You, Lord,
And I will sing Your praise.
In fact, I thank You for tough times.
It’s a strange thing to say,
But all those hard days remind me
That joy is on the way.
Psalm 30: 11
You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; you have
loosed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,
