[Verse 1] 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
[Chorus 1] 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
[Verse 2] 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
[Chorus 2] 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
[Bridge] 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'
[Chorus 3] 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
[Outro] Lift your eyes, you are not alone So keep getting up
