Press Release

On the heels of his viral and international chart-topping debut single, "Counting My Blessings," worship artist and songwriter Seph Schlueter is ready to share more songs with the world. His EP, “Counting My Blessings,” is out now (Provident Entertainment).

Listen here.

Schlueter quickly made a name for himself with the title track (check out the music video here), a catchy and joy-filled letter of thanks to a God who never fails. Penning the song with Jonathan Gamble and Jordan Sapp, the song exploded both in the U.S. and Brazil after an Instagram post using the song caught fire. It quickly hit No. 1 on Spotify’s” Viral 50 – Brazil” playlist, the only English song featured on the chart.

And the song continues to grow. Sony Brazil artist Isadora Pompeo recorded it in Portuguese ("Bênçãos Que Não Têm Fim”), achieving top 5 on the "Global Viral 50" playlist and 70 million-plus streams in less than four months. To date, the two versions have more than 12 million user-generated short-form videos across Instagram and TikTok, accounting for well over 1 billion views. "Counting My Blessings" is currently top 5 on Christian radio, with all reporting stations playing the song.

“This song is about gratitude and that’s so universal," Schlueter said. "Everyone can relate to gratitude. In a world where there’s so much negativity and complaining and fear, to see a song blowing up about gratitude is so important.” 

Rounding out the rest of the EP with "Love Me Still," "Never Known," "Stay" and "Running Back To You," Schlueter offers organic pop sensibilities and relatable lyrics that speak to his all-consuming love for Jesus.

“I hope this EP gives people a framework for Jesus,” he said. “These songs are my loaves and my fish for the Lord. If he wants to multiply it, that’s great. Multiplication isn’t my job, faithfulness is. If no one on earth heard my songs but only heaven sang them, that would be enough.”
