Count Your Blessings is a 1994 Christmas album, taking its title from the song of the same name included as its first track, presenting a concert recorded by Jane Siberry, Holly Cole, Rebecca Jenkins, Mary Margaret O'Hara and Victoria Williams.[1] The concert was broadcast on CBC Radio in Canada, and National Public Radio in the United States, in 1993.[2]
The concert presented a program of traditional Christmas music, both well-known standards and lesser-known songs.[3] It also included three original Christmas-themed songs written by the artists themselves: O'Hara's "Never, No", Siberry's "Are You Burning, Little Candle?" and Williams' "A Holy Thing".[3]
