Back Again
E.M.P Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You messed up again
Got weak and gave into sin
Well I've got good news for you my friend
God is faithful and just to forgive
Because he loves us
We've been crucified with Christ
It's time to get back up again
And walk in new life
When I make a mistake and
Don't repent right away the
Enemy tries to get inside my head
(Inside my head)
But I already know that
Jesus wants me where he's at
Don't you know this is why he bled
All have sinned and fall short his glory
But you gotta get back up again
Choose to turn away from sin
We can do all things through Christ
Be strong in the Lord
And in the power of his might
It's not over you can get back up again
His love covers all sin
Don't you know that
It's not over you can get back up again
Just choose to win
And get back up again
There he was just chillin at home
Walkin right, livin saved, stayed away from wrong
Only child with a righteous soul
Had Christ, had dreams, had the mindset to reach his goals
Then suddenly he started to sway
Started gettin into trouble
Evil clouded his way
Now he was witty
But his thoughts weren't pretty
Instead of seeking God he sought crime in the city
(And tell 'em what he said)
Jesus I really really wonder why
You'd consider forgiving me yet another time
Cus when I turned my back and was straight sinnin
Your love was patient your grace was sufficient
He was a gentleman
You said you'd wait for me to get it together
And to remember you're relevance
So when I say I'm sorry you know it's genuine
(It's real)
Lord forgive me as I repent again
All have sinned and fall short his glory
But you gotta get back up again
Choose to turn away from sin
We can do all things through Christ
Be strong in the Lord
And in the power of his might
It's not over you can get back up again
His love covers all sin
Don't you know that
It's not over you can get back up again
Just choose to win
And get back up again
It's not over you can get back up again
His love covers all sin
Don't you know that
It's not over
Get back up again




Just choose to win
And get back up again
