I was down
But I got up
I gotta run this race
I ain't never giving up
I gotta praise His name even when it gets tough
I gotta keep the faith even when it gets rough
I was down
But I got up
I gotta run this race
I ain't never giving up
I got Jesus on my side when the times get tough
He told me keep the faith even when it gets rough
I was down for a minute
Down for a minute yeah
Now I'm up and I'm winning
Up and I'm winning yeah
Thank you God
For all the things you done
Gave the one
So one day I could see your son
See His face in your place
Feel your love
This year they prayed
That I would lose but we won
Sometimes it got tough
Sometimes it got rough
Some days I was down
But I still looked up
Yeah they thought they had me down
Yeah they tried to turn me around
But you told me stay strong
Because you're the one who wears the crown.
I was down
But I got up
I gotta run this race
I ain't never giving up
I gotta praise His name even when it gets tough
I gotta keep the faith even when it gets rough
I was down
But I got up
I gotta run this race
I ain't never giving up
I got Jesus on my side when the times get tough
He told me keep the faith even when it gets rough
I was down for a minute
Down for a minute yeah
Now I'm up and I'm winning
Up and I'm winning yeah
