#MorningWorship - Uh Oh (Here I Go)

Each morning, I start off my day by listening to my personally curated "Morning Worship" playlist on my phone. It's a playlist with days' worth of gospel and worship music that I have grown up with and listened to for over 30 years.

I want to share with you a song each morning that I listened to that day that inspired me and reminded me of God's goodness, love and mission for us on Earth.

Today's song: "Uh Oh (Here I Go)" by MercyMe

(lyrics below the video)

Standing on the edge now

Feeling pretty brave

Time for another round

A leap of faith

When it comes to the unknown

He ain’t failed me yet

But doubt once again

Rears that ugly head

I said hey now

Need room to breathe

Heart’s going thump thump thump

Hey now

Maybe count to three

Ok 1, 2, 3 now jump

Uh oh here I go

Uh oh leaving the ground

Uh oh here I go

Feeling pretty brave

But don’t look down

(I said)

Uh oh here I go

Uh oh ready to fly

Uh oh here I go

I’m scared to death

But for the first time I’m alive

Here I am back again

Trying to find my nerve

Thought it’d get easier

It’s just the second verse

Lord gotta gimme strength

Is it faith or fear

Do I take the leap

Or do I stay right here

I said Hey now

Need room to think

Heart’s beating through my chest

Hey now

Maybe count to three

No push me better yet

Uh oh here I go

Uh oh leaving the ground

Uh oh here I go

Feeling pretty brave

But don’t look down

(I said)

Uh oh here I go

Uh oh ready to fly

Uh oh here I go

I’m scared to death

But for the first time I’m alive

“Until you learn to trust you will not jump” I’ve always told myself

But from up here it’s clear that trusting is the leap itself

Uh oh here I go

Uh oh leaving the ground

Uh oh here I go

Feeling pretty brave

But don’t look down

(I said)

Uh oh here I go

Uh oh leaving the ground

Uh oh here I go

Feeling pretty brave

But don’t look down

(I said)

Uh oh here I go

Uh oh ready to fly

Uh oh here I go

I’m scared to death

But for the first time I’m alive

Alive
