The Count

Count the money
You have earned
Count the lessons
You have learned

Count the years
Since you were born
Count the times
You’ve been forlorn

Count the cookies
In the jar
Count the times
You’ve driven far

Count the times
You were unsure
Count the times
You’ve helped the poor

Count the weeks
We’ve had no rain
Count the times
You’ve been in pain

Count the days
Till you’re released
Count your family
That’s deceased

If you’ve ever
You’ve fought with fiends
Count the times
You’ve made amends
