Upside of Down - Chris August

Published on Oct 16, 2012 by beanscot

This song, from Chris August's "Upside of Down" album, is for when life just doesn't make sense. We can trust God to make order out of disorder.
The lyrics:

"The Upside Of Down"

The downside of being up is my inside is empty of
The one thing my heart truly needs
When I feel invincible a million miles from miserable
It's always all about me

I don't know why I don't love You like I should, like You would
Through bad and good oh

[Chorus:]
Funny how we figure out where happiness is found
In the midst of this sadness I'm closer to You now
And that's the upside of down, the upside of down
It's all switched around, I lost and I found
The upside of down

You are more in my less, You are strength in my weakness
I'll never go back again
And then Your sunshine ends the rain and I return to my old ways
Why am I a fair weather friend?

I wanna be the one to love You like I should, like You would
Through the bad and good oh

Funny how we figure out where happiness is found
In the midst of this sadness I'm closer to You now

That's the upside of tragedies knowing You're holding my heart always, always
I may be down but I'm finding there's joy in the pain, in the pain

Funny how we figure out where happiness is found
In the midst of this sadness I'm closer, I'm closer to You now and oh

[Chorus]

The upside of down
It's all switched around, I lost and I found
The upside of down
