Thread Name: Lyr ADD: God's Counting on You (Lorre Wyatt)
Subject: ADD:God's Counting on Me (Lorre Wyatt)
This site has the lyrics (not the "wrong turns" and "eternity" verses) and a different video of the song....with a great story about Lorre Wyatt. I take it that Lorre Wyatt is the primary songwriter, but that Pete had a hand in it.

GOD'S COUNTING ON ME
(Lorre Wyatt)

When we look and we can see things are not what they should be
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
When we look and we see things are not what they should be
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.


It's time to turn things around, trickle up not trickle down
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
It's time to turn things around, trickle up not trickle down
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.

And when "drill, baby, drill" leads to "spill, baby, spill"
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
And when "drill, baby, drill" leads to "spill, baby, spill"
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.

God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.

Many wrong turns we have made; change the course, don't be afraid
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Many wrong turns we've made; change the course, don't be afraid
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.

Don't give up don't give in, workin' together we all can win
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Don't give up don't give in, workin' together we all can win
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.

There's big problems to be solved, let's get everyone involved
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
There's big problems to be solved, let's get everyone involved
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.

What we do now, you and me, will affect eternity
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
What we do now, you and me, will affect eternity
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.

When we sing with younger folks, we can never give up hope
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
When we sing with younger folks, we can never give up hope
God's counting on me, God's counting on you
Hopin' we'll all pull through, Hoping we'll all pull through,
Hopin' we'll all pull through
Me and you.


ALTERNATE VERSE:
Don't give up don't give in, there's a better world to win

ALTERNATE TITLE:
God's Counting on Me, God's Counting on You
