Count 'Em

Brandon Lake's song 'Count 'Em' is a powerful expression of faith and recognition of the divine miracles attributed to God. The lyrics are filled with vivid imagery and references to biblical events, emphasizing the might and holiness of the Lord. The song begins with a description of God's attributes, such as having 'thunder in Your vocal' and 'flames in Your eyes,' which symbolize His awe-inspiring presence and power. The mention of an empty tomb alludes to the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is considered the greatest miracle in Christian belief.

The chorus repeatedly proclaims God as 'Holy,' a declaration of His purity and separation from all that is sinful or profane. The song also highlights the power of God over evil, with phrases like 'demons cower' and 'power to devour any counterfeit roar,' suggesting that nothing can stand against divine authority. The reference to Goliath, the biblical giant defeated by David, serves as a metaphor for overcoming seemingly insurmountable challenges through faith.

In the bridge, Lake lists a series of rhetorical questions about the number of miracles, victories, and transformations that have occurred through God's intervention, each time answering with 'Can't count 'em.' This refrain emphasizes the idea that God's works are beyond human comprehension and quantification. The song is a celebration of faith's triumphs, from physical healings to spiritual awakenings, and it serves as a reminder of the boundless nature of divine power and grace.
