[Intro – Airy Pan Flute] [Soft keys underneath] One... two... three... Wait. I lost count. [Pan Flute Answers] Good problem to have. [808 Drops] [Verse 1] Running through the day like I'm late for my life, checking every box, trying to get it all right. Then I caught one sunset out the corner of my eye, had to stop for a second like... Where'd THAT come from? Got a friend who called, got a prayer that changed, got another little reason that I can't explain. I was moving so fast I almost missed the view, trying to count my blessings... They outran me too! [Pre-Chorus] One for the morning, two for the night, three for the doors He closed just right. Four, five, six... Hold up. I need a minute. [Deep Breath] Nope. Still can't count 'em. [Chorus] I'm trying to catch my breath, not my blessings, they keep running ahead while I'm still counting! One, two, three, then I lose my place, 'cause four more showed up before I finished saying grace! Catch my breath, not my blessings, every little day keeps teaching me the lesson: I could count all night and still wake up guessing... So I'll catch my breath, but I ain't catching all these blessings! [Pan Flute Hook] [Verse 2] Used to think a blessing had to look real big, big door, big dream, big "look what God did!" Now I know better. Sometimes it's small. A laugh when I needed it, that's one. A little more strength when I thought I had none. A "you okay?" at exactly the right time. A little bit of peace showing up in my mind. Maybe miracles don't always make noise, sometimes they're hiding in ordinary joys. So I'm slowing down enough to notice what I missed... And somehow my list keeps getting longer than this! [Beat Break – Pan Flute Melody] [Sister Grace] Okay. Let's count for real this time. [FAST RAP] One for the breath, two for the beat, three for the strength that put me on my feet! Four for the people who love me for me, five for the things God didn't let me see! Six for the lesson, seven for the wait, eight for the times I thought I showed up late! Nine for the mercy, ten for the grace... [Beat Stops] Wait. Grace? Does that count twice because that's also my name? [Beat Slams Back] I'M COUNTING IT TWICE! Eleven, twelve, lost count again, blessings keep coming before I can end! Good in the big, good in the small, good when I noticed, good through it all! Can't put gratitude in a spreadsheet box, can't count God's goodness with a stopwatch! So I'm done trying to finish the list. If I missed a blessing... THANK GOD THERE'S MORE I MISSED! [Pan Flute Rises] [Final Chorus – Gospel Backing Vocals] I'm trying to catch my breath, not my blessings, they keep running ahead while I'm still counting! One, two, three, then I lose my place, 'cause four more showed up before I finished saying grace! Catch my breath, not my blessings, every little day keeps teaching me the lesson: I could count all night and still wake up guessing... So I'll catch my breath... [Music Pulls Back] [Pan Flute Answers] Take it in. Look around. God's been good. [Final Beat] And I STILL lost count.
