| Wouldn’t it be nice if we could get it right the first time?
|
| But that’s not how it goes for most
|
| Change seems like it takes a lifetime
|
| But He is patient with us and He invites us to trust
|
| And hold onto hope, never let go
|
| His love will always meet us there
|
| When we get knocked down one more time
|
| We swing hard but lose the fight
|
| Don’t forget that the battle’s won
|
| When we keep getting up, keep getting up
|
| Wouldn’t it be great if when we fall we didn’t stay down so long?
|
| Or get caught up in the past, keeping track of all the times it went wrong
|
| What if we remembered we are loved and we believed that it’s enough?
|
| To inspire us and light a fire in us to get up and try again
|
| When we get knocked down one more time
|
| We swing hard but lose the fight
|
| Don’t forget that the battle’s won
|
| When we keep getting up, keep getting up
|
| So we keep getting up, keep getting up
|
| It’s not gravity that tethers us to the ground
|
| What if it’s only doubt and we can somehow shut it out
|
| Get mad and shout, «I won’t stay down»
|
| When we get knocked down one more time
|
| We swing hard but lose the fight
|
| Don’t forget that the battle’s won
|
| When we keep getting up, keep getting up
|
| So we keep getting up, keep getting up
|
| Keep getting up
|
| Lift your eyes, you are not alone
|
| So keep getting up |
