Blessings
I tried to count my blessings
But I could not and here's why
There so many of them
They reached up to the sky
I could not even see all them
For they reached much too far
I think they might have ended
Beyond the most distant star
But I really don't need to count them
I can feel them everywhere
Sometimes I don't see them at all
But I know that they are there
You see you don't need to count them
There are always more to share
But we must always remember
To thank God in our prayer
A blessing is a blessing
No matter the time and place
And they are there for us to keep
God gives them with His Grace

More Blessings
Don't try to count your blessings
Cause you can't count that high
Just take what God has to offer
And don't bother to ask Him why
No matter what troubles befall you
Don't just sit around and mope
There is always another blessing waiting
So don't ever give up hope
We know we don't deserve then
They keep happening just the same
Especially if we take the time to ask
For them in Jesus' name
Each blessing is a gift from God
Sent down from up above
And each of them is gift wrapped
In our Lord's precious love
The greatest blessing we receive
Is to be born again
By accepting Jesus in our hearts
And being freed from sin
Some day when this life has ended
And our earth's blessings are no more
All we'll ever know are blessings
When we reach Heaven's shore
