I was blind, now I'm seeing in color
I was dead, now I'm living forever
I had failed, but you were my redeemer
I've been blessed beyond all measure
I was lost, now I'm found by the fatherI've been changed from a ruin to treasure
I've been given a hope and a future
I've been blessed beyond all measure
I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Letting go and trusting when I cannot see
I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Surely every season you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me
You were there in the valley of shadows
You were there in the depth of my sorrows
You're my strength, my hope for tomorrow
I've been blessed beyond all measure
I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Letting go and trusting when I cannot see
I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Surely every season you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me

@Sarah.macleod
Is there any Christians reading these comments, that would be willing to pray for me? I realize they are Christian you tubers so I'm hoping some of their subscribers are Christians as well and I need some prayer. Could you please pray that in college I'll have a Christian roommate and that I'll pass my drivers test. Xox from Canada 🇨🇦♥️
@TecnocraciaDev
What is wrong of having a non christian roommate? That would be an opportunity of preaching the gospel, what do you think?
@lefez123
Praying for you that God has His way in you.
@dolfin425
