"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,

Whatever the downward spiral.

Keep looking up to heaven.

There’s nowhere to go but up.

 

VERSE:                                 

Now I’m looking at things,

From a different 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,

Whatever the downward spiral.

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 to 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,

Whatever the downward spiral.

Keep looking up to heaven.

There’s nowhere to go but up.

 

TAG:

Sometimes you need reminding,

There’s nowhere to go but up.
