Lyrics
I am in a fight not physical
I am in a war but not with this world
You are the light thats beautiful
And i want more
I want all thats yours
Joy unspeakable
That wont go away
Just enough strength
To live for today
So, i never have to worry
What tomorrow will bring
My faith is on solid rock
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I am in a fight not physical
I am in a war but not with this world
You are the light thats beautiful
And i want more
I want all thats yours
Joy unspeakable
That wont go away
Just enough strength
To live for today
So, i never have to worry
What tomorrow will bring
My faith is on solid rock
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
And the miracle of christ in me
Is the mystery that sets me free
I 'm nothing like I used to be
Just open up your eyes
You'll see
The miracle
And the miracle of christ in me
Is the mystery that sets me free
I 'm nothing like I used to be
Just open up your eyes
You'll see
Joy unspeakable
That wont go away
Just enough strength
To live for today
So, i never have to worry
What tomorrow will bring
My faith is on solid rock
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
I'm counting on God
I'm counting on
Joy unspeakable
Joy unspeakable
That wont go away
Just enough strength
To live for today
So, i never have to worry
What tomorrow will bring
My faith is on solid rock
I'm counting on God

Meaning & Inspiration
“Counting On God” presents Christian faith as reliance on God in the middle of a spiritual struggle. The opening distinguishes that conflict from a physical fight and turns attention toward divine light, joy, and strength for the present day. Rather than claiming control over tomorrow, the song places confidence on the solid foundation God provides. Its repeated title functions as a compact statement of trust that children can readily remember and sing.
The later lines describe Christ’s transforming presence as a mystery that brings freedom and makes the former life different. That language is consistent with New Testament teaching about Christ living in believers, while the promise of joy and daily strength reflects dependence rather than fear. The song joins celebration with discipleship: God is counted on for endurance today, freedom from the old life, and confidence about what lies ahead. Repetition keeps those ideas clear without making trust sound effortless or detached from struggle.
