Matthew West
Next Step
[Verse 1]
Have you ever been too weak, too weak to stand
Too weak to even try and understand
Every tear, every pain inside
Have you ever been knocked down, broken and tired
Slipping away, losing the fire
Stuck in your life, can’t ever seem to move on

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't have to be the one who sees
The way this all will end

[Chorus 1]
All you got to do is take the next step
Come on, come on, and take the next step
When you are losing the fight and the finish line's too far away
All you got to do is take the next step
Just get back up and take the next step
Deep in your soul, there's a strength just to face one more day
Just take the next step

[Verse 2]
Have you ever been held, held by a peace
A peace that you can't ever explain
A calm in the ache, joy that you feel inside
Have you ever been carried, lifted by arms
Standing you up, up off the ground
Letting you know, that you're never walking alone
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't have to be the one who sees
The way this all will end

[Chorus 2]
All you got to do is take the next step
Come on, come on, and take the next step
When you are losing the fight and the finish line's too far away
All you got to do is take the next step
Just get back up and take the next step
Deep in your soul, there's a strength just to face one more day
All you got to do is take the next step
Come on, come on, and take the next step
When you are losing the fight and the finish line's too far away
All you got to do is take the next step
Just get back up and take the next step
Deep in your soul, there's a strength just to face one more day
Just take the next step

[Bridge]
You can't control the future and
Yesterday is gone
But the God who wrote your story is
The God who moves you on
You can't control the future and
Yesterday is gone
But the God who wrote your story is
The God who moves you on
[Chorus 3]
All you got to do is take the next step
Come on, come on, and take the next step
When you are losing the fight and the finish line's too far away
All you got to do is take the next step
Just get back up and take the next step
Deep in your soul, there's a strength just to face one more day
All you got to do is take the next step
Just get back up, get back up
All you got to do is take the next step
All you got to do...

[Outro]
All you got to do is take the next step
Just get back up and take the next step
All you got to do is take the next step
Just get back up, get back up
