When I'm worried and I can't sleep I count my blessings instead of sheep And I fall asleep counting my blessings When my bankroll is getting small I think of when I had none at all And I fall asleep counting my blessings I think about a nursery and I picture curly heads And one by one I count them as they slumber in their beds If you're worried and you can't sleep Just count your blessings instead of sheep And you'll fall asleep counting your blessings And (you'll) I'll fall asleep counting my blessings I thank the Lord for good health For the gift of love He sends But most of all He's blessed me With my family and friends When you feel that you're down and out Just count your blessings, I have no doubt You'll soon be on your feet, counting your blessings
