Counting Mercies
Counting Mercies: Embracing Life's Blessings and Challenges
Lyrics
When we've been though, all this?
Reflecting on the experiences we've been through
It goes to prove, how much we fit
It demonstrates the depth of our compatibility or connection
We've made mistakes, we fail a lot
Acknowledging past errors and frequent failures
But here we are, look what we've got
Despite setbacks, acknowledging what has been achieved
Count the mercy, count the pain
Tallying moments of kindness or grace alongside moments of suffering
Summer's running from my shame
Feeling like time is passing quickly while avoiding facing personal guilt or regret
All the blessings, all the falls
Considering both favorable occurrences and times of stumbling
Count the days when, we almost had it all
Recalling instances where success was nearly attained
Nobody said, that life was fair
Recognizing the absence of fairness in life's challenges
You do your best, and hope like hell
Striving to do one's best and holding onto optimism despite uncertainty
You grit your teeth
Bearing difficulties with determination
And bite your tongue
Exercising restraint in difficult situations
You hold your heart, out to the sun
Remaining open and vulnerable despite challenges
And count your mercies, count your pain
Reiterating the act of counting moments of grace and hardship
Summer's running from my shame
Sensing a fleeting passage of time while avoiding confronting feelings of shame
All the blessings, all the falls
Acknowledging both fortunate events and times of downfall
Count the days when, we almost had it all
Remembering times when success was within reach but not achieved
If this is it, and now it's done
Contemplating the potential end of a situation or relationship
I'm more than glad, for all I've won
Expressing contentment for what has been gained if it concludes now
To feel your love, has been my life
Emphasizing the significance of experiencing love throughout life
I hope you know, that I'll be fine
Assuring someone of personal resilience despite circumstances
I'm counting mercies, counting pain
Continuing the act of counting moments of grace and hardship
Summer's running from my shame
Feeling time passing swiftly while avoiding facing personal guilt or regret
All the blessings, all the falls
Acknowledging both favorable occurrences and times of stumbling
Count the days when, we almost had it all
Recalling instances where success was nearly attained
