Lyrics

Kids Praise! 8
YOU’RE A WINNER

With the Lord you’re a winner even when you lose;
‘Cause the standard’s not a score, but the fact you choose
To do right, to serve God and to give your all,
Even when you fall, He forgives and you win.

Life is full of disappointment; It’s a hard-knock game.
First you’re up, then you’re down, but there is no shame.
So forge on, set your sights, and you’ll reach your goal;
He’s your strength, He’s your life, carry on.

You’re a winner! You’re a winner!
By His choice when you choose
You just win, you don’t lose;
So stand tall, stand tall.

With the Lord you’re a winner even when you lose;
‘Cause the standard’s not a score, but the fact you choose
To do right, to serve God and to give your all,
Even when you fall, He forgives and you win.

You’re a winner! You’re a winner!
By His choice when you choose
You just win, you don’t lose;
So stand tall.
Put your hand to the plow.
Look on high.
Lift your head to the sky,
‘Cause you’re winning right now.
