[Verse 1:]
|
I've been deceived for the very last time,
|
My eyes are open and I've made up mind
|
That I'll have patience in whatever I go through,
|
I am encouraged in You.
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
So many times my tears were ignored,
|
Before my real relationship with the Lord.
|
Now I hold my head up for I've been set free,
|
Nothing can discourage me.
|
|
They that wait on Him shall regain strength,
|
I encourage you in the Lord.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Be encouraged, hold your head up.
|
Be encouraged, don't you give up.
|
Be encouraged, hold your head up high.
|
|
[Repeat Verse 2:]
|
|
[Repeat Chorus:]
|
|
[Bridge:]
|
If you stand and never faint,
|
Please take heed to what I say.
|
|
[Repeat Chorus:]
|
|
[Vamp 1:]
|
Get it up, get it up, get it up.
|
Get it up, get it up, get it up.
|
|
[Vamp 2:]
|
Hold your head up, it's not over for you;
|
Everything He promised, I know He'll do.
|
|
[Vamp 3:]
|
Hold your head up.
|
|
[Repeat Chorus:]
