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
And it's good to know that I have been forgiven
Good to have her laying by my side
I've been given more than I deserve
For a past so full of bridges burned
I couldn't make this better if I tried
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
And it's so good
