You gotta sit back and count your blessings

You gotta name them one by one

Baby you can't take the credit

For anything that GOD has done

I dont know how I made it over

I dont know how I made it through

You gotta sit back and count your blessings

And say LORD its because of you

I know some folks so caught up in self

With their nose up looking down on everybody else

But as for me I gotta swallow my pride

When I think about my life tears flow from my eyes

I can't forget back in Detroit city

With my demo tape tryna get folks to her me

Tryna bring a new sound to this gospel game

Had people hatin on me in JESUS name

And I could have gave up a long time ago

If I did you wouldn't hear me on this radio

Couldn't come to your city and rock the show

I just want the world to know

You gotta sit back and count your blessings

You gotta name them one by one

Baby you can't take the credit

For anything that GOD has done

I dont know how I made it over

I dont know how I made it through

You gotta sit back and count your blessings

And say LORD its because of you

See you gotta give praise to the most high

Its because of him that you can touch the sky

Its the little things we should never forget

While youre driving bentleys and flyin in jets

Who woke you up this morning started you on your way

Keeping your heart pumping each and every day

Who gave you power to do big things

I think we oughta stop and give praise to the King

Its okay to want your pockets fatter

But we gotta focus on what really matters

Like love, life and family

Want the world to sing with me

You gotta sit back and count your blessings

You gotta name them one by one

Baby you can't take the credit

For anything that GOD has done

I dont know how I made it over

I dont know how I made it through

You gotta sit back and count your blessings

And say LORD its because of you

He brought me from a mighty long way

He keeps on making a way

I gotta roof over my head

Im still alive when I could have been dead

Over and over again

He keeps forgiving me of my sins

When I think about all he's done

I gotta testify that youre the one

You gotta sit back and count your blessings

You gotta name them one by one

Baby you can't take the credit

For anything that GOD has done

I dont know how I made it over

I dont know how I made it through

You gotta sit back and count your blessings

And say LORD its because of you

He brought me from a mighty long way

He keeps on making a way

I gotta roof over my head

Im still alive when I could have been dead

Over and over again

He keeps forgiving me of my sins

When I think about all he's done

I gotta testify that youre the one
