Counting Blessings Instead of Sheep

When I'm worried and I can't sleep I count my blessings instead of sheep And I fall asleep counting my blessings When my bankroll is getting small I think of when I had none at all And I fall asleep counting my blessings I think about a nursery and I picture curly heads And one by one I count them as they slumber in their beds If you're worried and you can't sleep Just count your blessings instead of sheep And you'll fall asleep counting your blessings (1954) From the film "White Christmas" with Danny Kaye, Vera Ellen and Rosemary Clooney I'm counting my blessings one-by-one: 1. Getting up in the morning for a fresh start with no mistakes in it yet. 2. Health and strength 3. Keen intellect 4. Roof overhead 5. Clothes for the winter 6. Nutritious Food to eat 7. Work 8. Snow 9. Rain Most important: "I'm Thankful for you!" Posted by Christy Larsen
