Lift up your eyes

Just another day

Watching people play

Unaware of the harm caused to others with what they do or say.

Death is all around,

it is hard to tell if one’s final destination is God’s plan,

When it’s taken by man’s hand.

The pain barrows deep,

You can’t get to those depths,

The master’s hand is extended,

Waiting to get you through the mess.

He’ll hold you up when you cannot stand,

He’ll carry you when much more is needed than a hand.

Chorus

Lift up your eyes to the hills ,

That’s where your help comes from,

Jesus is there waiting for you,

Don’t turn and run.

Keep moving forward shedding distractions, disappointment and despair,

Disbelief is a hindrance,

It will get you nowhere.

Lift up your eyes- repeat

See God’s perfect plan,

There’s a mercy and a love matched by no man.

Lift up your eyes

Verse

A life surrendered to selfish motives and lies,

I’m watching each one,

as I imagine God looks down and cries.

Love one another as yourself is God’s command,

It’s hard to move forward in love, when yourself, you cannot stand.

Open your heart to his spirit, experience true love,

Open your arms to your brother,

Embrace Gods words in your heart,

as he joyously dispatches his dove.

Chorus:

Lift up your eyes to the hills ,

That’s where your help comes from,

Jesus is there waiting for you,

Don’t turn and run.

Keep moving forward shedding distractions, disappointment and despair,

Disbelief is a hindrance,

It will get you nowhere.

Lift up your eyes- repeat

See God’s perfect plan,

There’s a mercy and a love matched by no man.

Lift up your eyes
