You're so afraid you're gonna break
You try to fix the things that make you lose control
The pain you saw, the lies you heard

Knocked you down face in the dirt
And bruised your soul

Did you ever think life would be this way?
Always looking for a change?

Then try and count the stars
When the world is out trying to steal your heart
You're meant for something higher
What we see is incomplete
And hope will keep you moving on
'Cause this is just the start, yeah

Shake the dust off your feet
Realize that you are free to overcome
There's a dream, there's a place
There's a crown with your name in the kingdom come

Did you ever think life could be this way?
That the night could show you grace?

Try and count the stars
When the world is out trying to steal your heart
You're meant for something higher
What we see is incomplete
And hope will keep you moving on
'Cause this is just the start, yeah

Oh, oh, just try to count the stars
Oh, oh

So let your fire rise
And flood the sky tonight
So let your fire rise
And flood the sky tonight

Try and count the stars
When the world is out trying to steal your heart
You're meant for something higher
What we see is incomplete
And hope will keep you moving on
'Cause this is just the start, yeah

Oh, oh, just try to count the stars
Oh, oh just try to count the stars
Oh, oh, hope will keep you moving on
'Cause this is just the start, yeah
