Count the Stars!

Here's the theme song to my upcoming play about Abraham and Sarah...it's been in my mind for months now. I thought I would share it with you to. Hopefully you'll remember to count the stars...

Count the Stars!

You tell me such wonderful things
Your destiny for me is grand
From Haran to Canaan to Egypt
You've set me on the choicest land.

You tell me to look at the sky
To count all the stars if I can
You promise to bring a great nation
From me, this simple man.

If I could count the stars
Then I could count your blessings
If I could count the stars
Then I could count your love
If I could count the stars
Then I could count your promises
Oh I could never count the stars...

So I'll walk by faith
I'll always follow you
Whatever you should ask of me
I believe in you
Whatever I must face
Beyond what I can simply see

You tell me to go I say, "Where?"
It's never a question of, "Why?"
You give me this promise, I won't ask, "How?"
I'll simply look into the sky

If I could count the stars
Then I could count your blessings
If I could count the stars
Then I could count your love
If I could count the stars
Then I could count your promises
Oh I could never count the stars
Oh I could never count the stars!
