Count It All Joy (Marks)

Count it all joy to bear the cross of Je­sus!

Just a lit­tle bur­den for the Mas­ter’s sake;

Soon there will be ex­ceed­ing weight of glo­ry

For His tried and faith­ful serv­ants to par­take.

Count it all joy

count it all joy

Count it joy to serve the Lord from day to day;

Count it all joy to bear the cross of Je­sus

All things work for good to those who love the Lord.

Count it all joy when sore­ly tried and tempt­ed!

He has pro­mised grace to help in time of need;

Trusting in God

press ev­er on to con­quer

He will al­ways prove to be a friend in­deed.

Count it all joy when walk­ing thro’ the val­ley!

Even in the night the Lord will give a song;

Jesus can turn thy sor­row in­to glad­ness;

Praise and hon­or un­to Him for aye be­long.
