How to check with javascript if text exist in element with iframes?

I’m trying to know if there is a text in current window, but the element is behind 2 iframes.

Initially I tried with storeXpathCount:
storeXpathCount | xpath=//p[contains(text(),‘Good morning all’)] | counter

and ${counter} = 0, so is not detected. Then I need to select 2 frames first like this:

selectFrame | relative=top
selectFrame | index=0
selectFrame|id=some_id
storeText | xpath=//p[contains(text(),'Good morning all')] | txtvar
executeScript | return ${txtvar}.includes(\"morning\"); | textfound
if | ${textfound} == true |
echo | "do something" |
else | |
echo | "do domething else"|
end | |

Is there a way to check if the text “morning” is present in that element in a single javascript code, in order to have get something like this?

executeScript | Some javascript code | textfound
if | ${textfound} == true |
echo | "do something" |
else | |
echo | "do domething else"|
end | |

This is in json format:

    {
      "Command": "selectFrame",
      "Target": "relative=top",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "selectFrame",
      "Target": "index=0",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "selectFrame",
      "Target": "id=some_id",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "storeText",
      "Target": "xpath=//p[contains(text(),'Good morning all')]",
      "Value": "txtvar",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "executeScript",
      "Target": "return ${txtvar}.includes(\"morning\");",
      "Value": "textfound",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "if",
      "Target": "${textfound} == true",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "echo",
      "Target": "\"Do somenthing\"",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "else",
      "Target": "",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "echo",
      "Target": "\"Do something else\"",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    },
    {
      "Command": "end",
      "Target": "",
      "Value": "",
      "Description": ""
    }

Thanks for any help.

As possible alternative solution, you can check if text exits visually with XMoveText | morning and then check the result of !statusOK. If the text is not found, this value gets set to false. This approach works visually (computer vision), so it avoids the frame issues.

Thanks Ulrich for your suggestion. I’ll try that option.
