Song Meaning

Bryann T and Monica Hill Trejo's “Teach Me To Number My Days” is a rap-and-sung prayer that draws its title from a psalm. It opens with gratitude: “Truth is You've been too good to me, I could not be who I am today without You God,” and the request, “help me to number my days.” Another early line is a confession of dependence, “I'm no good without You God.”

The verses set the singer's wishes against God's, using parallel lines of the form “You wanna see me...” and “I wanna see You...,” which show a desire to align his heart with God's. He writes that there is “no division, nothing hidden” and the rhythm is pure. The middle section addresses opposition. He has “a table” where everyone can sit, prays “God bless all my enemies,” and says that people who stuck labels on Jesus will do the same to his followers. The finish is a reminder of mortality, “everybody gotta go to the grave,” with a prayer for mercy on judgment day.

The title is from Psalm 90:12, the request to be taught to number our days. Blessing enemies follows Matthew 5:44, and the claim of being complete in Christ matches John 15:5.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Truth is You've been too good to me

You've been way too good

Truth is You've been too good to me

I could not be who I am today

Without You God

Without You God

Help me to number my days

Truth is I'm no good without You God

With You God

Help me to number my days


You wanna see me low

I wanna see you live

You wanna see me fall

I wanna see you stand

I wanna see me cry

I wanna see you smile

I wanna see you climb

The highest height and reach the sky

You wanna see me angry

I wanna see you fed

I wanna see you live

Why do wanna see me dead

Yo can't allow my heart beat different than yours

There's no division nothing hidden

This rythm is pure

I got a table everybody come sit with me

God bless all my enemies

I know that you're sick of me

When you know your identity

It's easy to spit at me

The same way they did Jesus

They'd find something to stick on me


With every drip of blood

It's an honor to believe in You

I keep You close the Holy Ghost

My life is so complete in You

There is no defeat in You

There is no deceit in You

I hit my knees for You


Truth is You've been too good to me

You've been way too good

Truth is You've been too good to me

I could not be who I am today

Without You God

Without You God

Help me to number my days

Truth is I'm no good without You God

With You God

Help me to number my days


Hey teach me how to number my days

Show me how to measure with counts

Everybody gotta to go to the grave

And I just pray on judgement day

Lord You mercy is found...


Truth is You've been too good to me

You've been way too good

Truth is You've been too good to me

I could not be who I am today

Without You God

Without You God

Help me to number my days

Truth is I'm no good without You God

With You God

Help me to number my days
