Lift me up

Folder: 
2005

I am dying inside of me, a little more every day

and so onto my knees I fall and I start to pray

I fight my battle and I bleed a little more

cause there is this agony that I just can't ignore

I'm so trapped in this cycle and I can't seem to escape

I wish I was dreaming and that I'd open my eyes and wake

the only hope that I hold onto is that you are with me

and sometimes it can barely get me through the night you see



chorus

Lord, lift me up

lift up my hands to praise you

Oh lift me up

lift up my soul to worship you

Lord, lift me up

lift up my heart to love you

Oh lift me up, Lord lift me up



in the darkest black hole I wait for you

cause I know that you're here to see me through

tears are binding me and I'm drowning inside

and all I can do is hold my breath and hide

but I'm sinking, and I need to be rescued

I am on my knees and my soul needs to be renewed

please pull me out of this quicksand

I am barely able to reach your hand

chorus



God, I need you to lift me up on to my feet

cause I know that you are all I'll ever need

I am desperate for your healing

to heal the pain that I am feeling

I am so broken and lost and so empty

but in my darkest hour I start to see

that I have always been held by your hands

and that you have shaped me into all that I am

chorus
