Seph Schlueter - Counting My Blessings Lyrics
Lyrics
It’s like it was yesterday
I was a praying for a miracle
Scared to have a little hope
And now looking back today
Seeing all the things You’ve done
I can’t even add them up
One, two, three
Up to infinity
I’d run out of numbers
Before I could thank You for everything
God I’m still counting my blessings
All that You’ve done in my life
The more that I look in the details
The more of Your goodness I find
Father on this side of heaven
I know that I’ll run out of time
But I will keep counting my blessings
Knowing I can’t count that high
And I know that seasons
Never last forever
So, God I will remember
All of the reasons
My heart has to be grateful
All the times you have been faithful to me
God I’m still counting my blessings
All that You’ve done in my life
The more that I look in the details
The more of Your goodness I find
Father on this side of heaven
I know that I’ll run out of time
But I will keep counting my blessings
Knowing I can’t count that high
Oh, I can’t count that high
High
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
High
Oh, Your goodness, Your goodness
One, two, three
Up to infinity
I’d run out of numbers
Before I could thank You for everything
God I’m still counting my blessings
All that You’ve done in my life (Oh oh oh
The more that I look in the details (In the details)
The more of Your goodness I find (Oh oh oh)
Father on this side of heaven
I know that I’ll run out of time (Oh oh oh)
But I will keep counting my blessings
Knowing I can’t count that high
I will keep counting my blessings
Knowing I can’t count that high

Meaning & Inspiration
Seph Schlueter brings us back to the basics of spiritual maturity with his track Counting My Blessings, which arrived on July 11, 2025, as a key piece of the album Counting My Blessings. We often complicate our walk with God, treating faith like a riddle to solve rather than a relationship to enjoy, but this song strips away that pretense. When Seph sings about being scared to have a little hope, he taps into that raw, human vulnerability we all know when our backs are against the wall and the future looks like a closed door. He pushes past that fear by choosing to look back, and in doing so, he practices the ancient discipline of remembrance. Psalm 77:11 instructs us to meditate on all the Lord has done, and that is exactly the engine driving this chorus.
When we start cataloging God’s kindness, we quickly realize our math is insufficient. The lyrics confess that he would run out of numbers before finishing the list, which isn't just poetic fluff; it is a biblical reality. David writes in Psalm 40:5 that the wonders God has performed are too many to declare. We serve a Father whose nature is to overflow, and Seph rightly identifies that looking into the details of our lives reveals a density of grace we often overlook in the hustle. It is easy to be grateful for the big breakthroughs, but this track encourages us to find His handiwork in the subtle, daily movements of His providence. Even when he acknowledges that seasons never last forever, he anchors his hope in the unchanging character of the Giver rather than the stability of the circumstances.
Lamentations 3:22-23 tells us that the mercies of the Lord are new every morning, and that is the core theology here. The song isn't suggesting that our lives are devoid of struggle, but it makes a bold claim that God’s faithfulness is a much larger story than our current problems. By committing to keep counting even though he knows he cannot reach the end, Seph models a life of perpetual thanksgiving. This isn't just positive thinking; it is a declaration of the infinite nature of divine love. If we spent more time quantifying the goodness of God and less time calculating the size of our obstacles, our spiritual posture would shift overnight. God isn't looking for a perfect list, He is looking for a heart that acknowledges every breath, every rescue, and every small mercy as a gift from His hand. You don't need a calculator to track the grace of a Savior who gave everything just to make sure you have a story worth telling.
