Keep Getting Up

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
