Just One More Time

Verse 1
When I wake up in the morning, time’s been taking its toll,
Miles behind these tired eyes, weight upon my soul.
I lift my arm with one finger to the sky,
Whisper, “Let me rise again… just one more time.”
Pre-Chorus
It ain’t for riches, it ain’t for fame,
Just one more sunrise in Your name.
Chorus
One more time, You raise me up,
Through the ache, through the dust.
Till the day this hand won’t climb,
And that one small finger can’t reach the sky.
I know my “one more” won’t always be mine,
But today You lift me… one more time.
Verse 2
Some days I wonder how long this road will run,
How many mornings left before my race is done.
But as long as I can breathe Your name,
As long as I can feel that flame—
Pre-Chorus
I’ll stand in faith, though weak I be,
You rise the life back up in me.
Chorus
One more time, You raise me up,
Through the fear and through the rough.
Till the day my body resigns,
And heaven calls this heart of mine.
I know that moment’s somewhere down the line,
But today You lift me… one more time.
Bridge
And when my “one more” turns to no more days,
I won’t be afraid of the doorway I face.
’Cause every rise You gave me here
Was proof You’ve always been near.
Final Chorus
One more time, You raise me up,
Even when I feel I’ve had enough.
Till the day I cross that line,
And trade this pain for the other side.
But for now I breathe, I live, I shine-

‘Cause you raise me,

You raise me,

One more time.
