(Yes, I made a video for this song earlier using a version by Christian singer JJ Heller. Tammy's version was the first version I ever heard, so I am sort of partial to it, so I created this one, too. Besides, my cousin likes Tammy Wynette, so I made this for her.) Tammy Wynette singing a too-short version of Irving Berlin's old song "Count Your Blessings." So sweet. Backstory to the song. Irving Berlin suffered from insomnia. So he visited his doctor and whined and complained about his malady, and his doctor asked him "Have you ever tried counting your blessings?" And thus the song was born. It appeared in the movie "White Christmas" and was nominated for an Academy Award, but it lost out to the song "Three Coins in the Fountain."
