| As the sun slowly rises above the river |
| I look out over all that God has made |
| Listen as the day starts to awaken |
| I thank God for things that never change |
| I can hear her laughing in the kitchen |
| And the sounds of little footsteps on the stairs |
| I’ve got all I’ll ever need: a wife, a home, a family |
| And I thank God for all those answered prayers |
| And it’s good |
| I got more than I ever thought I would |
| I can finally see how all the wrong turns and the heartaches |
| The lessons in the mistakes |
| Help me count these blessings like I should |
| And it’s so good |
| Every day’s a gift that I’ve been given |
| Every breath feels like a second chance |
| And everything I’ve done heaven has seen |
| And God just keeps on forgiving me, and I |
| Do my best to change what I can |
| And it’s so good |
| I got more than I ever thought I would |
| I can finally see how all the wrong turns and the heartaches |
| The lessons in the mistakes |
| Help me count these blessings like I should |
