'Count Your Blessings' was written by Kim McLean and Joe Johnston. The writers of this great song wanted to approach the concept of "counting blessings" from a completely different angle. Instead of a gloomy, thoughtful tone, the writers set out to write lyrics that demanded a lively, highly rhythmic delivery. They didn't want gratitude to sound like a duty. They wanted it to sound like a jubilant, heartfelt dance.The opening verses establish a foundational truth, reminding you that when life clouds your vision, you must look back at what God has already done.'Count Your Blessings' was Arranged and Orchestrated by Lari Goss and the audio recording was produced by WORD Music.The Chorus to 'Count Your Blessings' says it this way...You got to count your blessingsYou'll find one if you tryCount on the Lord and watch the blessings multiplyThose "might have, could have, should have beens"Are nothing but distressingWhen you're down and outIt's time to count your blessingsThis great Chorus functions as an energetic checklist. Instead of just slightly being happy, the lyrics literally command the listener to stand up, call out, and examine the good things in their life.We hope that you will "spread the word' about Worship2point0.com where our MISSION is to help people EVERY WHERE...at ANY TIME...EXPERIENCE...the PRESENCE of GOD!Check out Worship2point0.com Internet Radio where you can listen to great songs by Don Moen, Ron Kenoly, Kent Henry and many other gifted Worship Leaders in your car, on your phone, online and at home.
