Lyrics:

Words Musicmike Hudson And Michael W. Smith

i Am Holding To The Joy Of My Salvation
i Am Glad To Have A Life That Always Grows
and If The Word Of God Is Any Indication
i Am Doing Even Better Than I Know
i Am Doing Even Better Than I Know
there's A Joy That Even People Of The World Find
in Every Good And Perfect Gift The Father Sends
so I Thank The Lord That I Was Born The First Time
but I Thank Him More That I Was Born Again
oh, I Thank Him More That I Was Born Again

chorus
i Am Up
like The Sun Is Up
i Can Feel My Life On A Rise
i Am Up
like The Stars At Night
i Get Up On Bein' Alive
i Am Up
like The Lord Is Up
and My Life Is Filled With His Life
i Was Freed And I Am Saved
i Am Up
i Am Up

there Are Times Life Is So Fine I Can't Contain It
everywhere I Look I See What God Had Done
and I Don't Have To Work And Worry To Sustain It
when I Walk With God His Joy Will Always Come
when I Walk With God His Joy Will Always Come

chorus
