"Nowhere to Go But Up," A GOSPEL SONG

VERSE:                                 

I’ve been down for so long,

That I’ve tasted the dirt.

I’ve been low for so long,

That it’s starting to hurt.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

 

CHORUS:                  

There’s nowhere to go but up.

Nowhere to go but higher.

There’s nowhere to go but up,

You gotta be a fighter.

Keep looking up to heaven.

There’s nowhere to go but up.

 

VERSE:                                 

Now I’m looking at things,

From a brand-new approach,

And I’m thinking of things,

Like what matters the most.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

 

CHORUS:                  

There’s nowhere to go but up.

Nowhere to go but higher.

There’s nowhere to go but up,

You gotta be a fighter.

Keep looking up to heaven.

There’s nowhere to go but up.

 

BRIDGE:                    

Up where the bluebirds are flying,

Up where the airplanes are gliding,

And clouds appear in a swirl.

Up where the angels are singing,

Up where the starlight is bringing,

A light for the dark in the world.

 

CHORUS:                  

There’s nowhere to go but up.

Nowhere to go but higher.

There’s nowhere to go but up,

You gotta be a fighter.

Keep looking up to heaven.

There’s nowhere to go but up.

 

TAG:

Sometimes, we all need reminding.

There’s nowhere to go but up.
