Lyrics
Blessed Beyond Measure *DEMO*
Britton Ferrell
I don't always know the reason why…but I love Jesus
And when I take a long look back on this life He's given me
I can't do nothin' but praise His name
VERSE 1
(Intimate, conversational — like testimony)
I don't know why, but I love Jesus
Lookin' back on life, I see just what He's done
For me and mine through every season
Every storm we weathered, every battle won
And sometimes Lord, remembering just blows my mind
The tender grace He showed me, time after time
Should've been gone not once, not twice, but three
Yet here I stand His mercy still on me
HOOK / PRE-CHORUS
Oh, I tried to make it on my own
Stumbled, flailed and failed just skin and bone
Till I got grown and finally came to see
That nothing good I had was ever just from me
CHORUS
Blessed beyond measure, Lord I don't deserve a thing
Got a wife who is my anchor, my forever queen
Family all around me, friends who help me carry on
Don't want this grace to end this beautiful, unearned song
Every morning that I rise, I bow my head and give Him thanks
Not by my own power, not by my own strength or rank
You know where you owe your life oh, Jesus He is King
Where all is right, and all is well He is everything
VERSE 2
[Grateful, warmhearted — story building]
Now I've got grandkids runnin' through my door
Man oh man, I never dreamed I'd see this day before
God wrote a story I could never understand
He drew the path and led me gently by the hand
Oh whether you are living in the suburbs or the hood
His grace still reaches everywhere, and mercy still is good
Don't matter who you are or how far gone you've been
He'll meet you in your broken place and make you whole again
HOOK / PRE-CHORUS
Oh, I tried to make it on my own
Stumbled, flailed and failed just skin and bone
Till I got grown and finally came to see
That nothing good I had was ever just from me
CHORUS
Blessed beyond measure, Lord I don't deserve a thing
Got a wife who is my anchor, my forever queen
Family all around me, friends who help me carry on
Don't want this grace to end this beautiful, unearned song
Every morning that I rise, I bow my head and give Him thanks
Not by my own power, not by my own strength or rank
You know where you owe your life oh, Jesus He is King
Where all is right, and all is well He is everything
VERSE 3
[Building, declarative — congregational energy rising]
Every day's a gift I know I didn't earn
A living testimony of the lessons hard-learned
His hand was on me even when I chose to stray
His love was so relentless it just wouldn't go away
So now I lift my voice and raise these grateful hands
A humbled, mended man who finally understands
It wasn't luck or fortune, wasn't chance that kept me here
It was mercy, it was Jesus, and the cross that drew me near
BRIDGE [Repeat 2–3x, intensity building each round]
He kept me, oh He kept me
When the tide was pulling me under
He kept me, yes He kept me
Still standing Lord, it's a wonder
All glory, all the honor
Belongs to Jesus my King
I'll spend every breath of this life
Just lifting His name and singing
FINAL CHORUS [Full gospel choir, key change — up a whole step]
Blessed beyond measure, Lord I don't deserve a thing
Got a wife who is my anchor, my forever queen
Family all around me, friends who help me carry on
Don't want this grace to end this beautiful, unearned song
Every morning that I rise, I bow my head and give Him thanks
Not by my own power, not by my own strength or rank
You know where you owe your life oh, Jesus He is King
Where all is right, and all is well He is everything
OUTRO [Slow, tender — spoken as music breathes underneath]
"To every soul still standing when the world said you were finished
To everyone God kept when the enemy declared it over
To the ones who tried it their own way and finally let go
This song is for you
He kept you then
He's keeping you now
And beloved He is not done with you yet
