Lately I've been going through some things
That's really got me down
I need someone, somebody to help me come and
Turn my life around

I can't explain it
I can't obtain it
Jesus Your love is so,
It's so amazing

It gets me high, up to the sky and when
I think about Your goodness it makes me want to
Stomp
Makes me clap my hands

Makes me want to dance and Stomp
My brother can't you see I've got the victory
Stomp!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, Stomp on the enemy 'cause I've got the victory

Stomp on the enemy 'cause I've got the victory
