Lyrics
I Stopped at One Chorus: I tried to count my blessings one by one, But I stopped at onefor You are enough. You're all I need in this life; You lift me when I'm down. You walk with me through the rainsuch a loving friend. Verse 1: Ive tested the world and seen with my eyes; It offers nothing but sorrow and lies. It's full of darkness as it spinsIve seen it with my eyes. Oh, how I long for His coming tomorrow. Chorus: I tried to count my blessings one by one, But I stopped at onefor You are enough. You're all I need in this life; You lift me when I'm down. You walk with me through the rainsuch a loving friend. Verse 2: I've chased after dreams that faded like smoke, Held on to promises that broke. But You remained through the silence and storm, With arms open wideso gentle, so warm. Theres no one like You, my King; You lifted me up from the dirt and sin. *Chorus 2* Copyright 2025 Richard Shekari Written, produced and performed by Richard Shekari.
