I'm Up by Michael W. Smith

Words & music:mike 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
