Count Your Blessings
**Verse 1: **
Woke up this morning, sun was shining bright,
Got a heart full of joy, everything's gonna be all right,
I’m Grateful for the love, that is surrounding me,
I’m counting my blessings, and letting my mind be free!
Chorus 2x
When praises go up blessings come down
When praises go up up blessings come down
When praises go up blessings come down
When praises go up up up up up blessings come down
**Verse 2: **
Through my storms and trials, God is always near,
Even In my darkest valleys, He calms all my fears,
So lift your eyes to the hills, that's where your help comes from,
And be encouraged because God said it’s already done!
**Chorus:**
When praises go up blessings come down
When praises go up up blessings come down
When praises go up blessings come down
When praises go up up up up up blessings come down

And I’m grateful, because you’re faithful.
Hope and mercy never fails
Because your word will prevail .
And I’m grateful, because your faithful

Count your blessings
If you got your health and your strength,
If you have a car to drive count your blessings
If you got a roof over your head, count your blessings
If you have a sound mind count your blessings
and shoes on your feet, count your blessings
Count your blessings and see what the Lord has done
**Chorus: **
When praises go up blessings come down
praises go up up blessings come down
When praises go up blessings come down
praises go up up up up up blessings come down
