COUNTRY PSALM

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The gold of the sunrise chases the dark The gift of new mercies awakens my heart The bird of the morning is singing her song Little feet patter the hardwood like drums Boys making noise at the top of their lungs Beautiful chaos shatters the calm [Chorus] But oh thank God for this country psalm Praise the Lord, praise the Lord I've got so much to be grateful for Praise the Lord, praise the Lord I've got so much to be grateful for I've got breath in this body And hope in these scars If I counted my blessings they'd rival the stars I'll praise You forevermore, even if I never get one more Praise the Lord [Verse 2] Good food on our table Good wine in our glass Swing tires, bonfires and babies on laps Grandparents dance when the fireflies turned on Oh thank God for this country psalm [Chorus] But oh thank God for this country psalm Praise the Lord, praise the Lord I've got so much to be grateful for Praise the Lord, praise the Lord I've got so much to be grateful for I've got breath in this body And hope in these scars If I counted my blessings they'd rival the stars I'll praise You forevermore, even if I never get one more Praise the Lord [Bridge] Between the letting go Desperately holding on Help me remember You're where my heart is A moment of clarity, creation's symphony What could I do but respond [Chorus] Praise the Lord, praise the Lord I've got so much to be grateful for Praise the Lord, praise the Lord I've got so much to be grateful for I've got breath in this body And hope in these scars If I counted my blessings they'd rival the stars I'll praise You forevermore, even if I never get one more Praise the Lord [Outro] Moon's on the rise and the river, she runs All I can say is "Lord, Thy will be done" I pull her in closer as we pray for the dawn God bless this mess and this country psalm
