Lyrics
Verse 1
I've been high, I've been low
I've held on tight, and I've let go
But even down the hardest road
You brought light to this heavy soul
And I know You'll do it again
Verse 2
When my days are dark as night
Like the sun forgot to rise
It hurts so bad I could lose my mind
But still You stand right by my side
And I know You'll do it again
Chorus
Time after time You heard my cry
I thought I was ruined, but You saw me through it
I don't know why You saved my life
But I've seen You do it
And I know You'll do it, do it again
Verse 3
No one else has ever been
Even close to this kind of friend
As long as I'm in Your hands
Let the storms blow on in
Chorus
Time after time You heard my cry
I thought I was ruined, but You saw me through it
I don't know why You saved my life
But I've seen You do it
And I know You'll do it, do it
Bridge
Over and over and over again
Over and over and over again
Over and over and over again
Chorus
Time after time You heard my cry
I thought I was ruined, but You saw me through it
I don't know why You saved my life
I've seen You do it
I know You'll do it, do it again
Do it again
Do it again
Do it again

Meaning & Inspiration
Do It Again is a testimony song that looks back on past rescue to trust God again. The verses describe highs and lows, holding tight and letting go, hard roads where God brought light, days as dark as night and a pain so bad the singer could lose their mind, yet He stands at their side, and each time the answer is "I know You'll do it again."
The chorus recalls that time after time He heard the cry and saw the singer through, even when the singer did not understand why the life was saved. The final verse calls Him a friend like no other and welcomes the storms while in His hands. These themes echo Psalm 40:1-3, Psalm 77:11 on remembering the Lord's works, and Lamentations 3:21-23 on hope from remembered mercy. The bridge repeats "over and over and over again," which gives the song a steady, confident tone.
