A lost soul has been found
a lifeless spirit awakened
with new life breathed upon her
new chances and a new heart
a new creation is born within her
Darkness no longer envelops her mind
but a new light, full of glory
and magnificence, shines brightly
on her body, radiating a joy
so wonderful, words cannot describe.
the emptiness that once tormented
her heart, finally is filled
with an overflowing love
that could only have come from Heaven above
Her dull gloomy eyes, now sparkle
with gratitude, where compassion now
replaces a bitter mistrust
her face glows, her smiles are no longer fake
Her hands are lifted towards the sky,
reaching to the one true God who released
her soul from the bondage of sin,
the God who set her free
New tears form in her eyes,
no longer of sadness but full of awe
as the love of Jesus pours out on her
She can't understand the depth of His love
all she can do is accept it and recieve it
her decrepit earthly body
morphs into a perfect flawless being
as she's lifted to the clouds
No more worries, no more pain for her
no more anger, no more depression
no more loneliness, no more rejection
no more tears and no more fears
no more dissappointments, no more hopelessness
no more darkness, no more death
no more sin
Only joy, only peace, only love
Only new things to come
She's left herself and her old life behind
for the promise Jesus gives us all;
eternal abundant life
Without looking back, she grabs His hand
as He takes her away to paradise
Gazing in desperation, I lift my hands
He takes mine too, His grip is firm; He's not letting go
(His grip is so gentle; you wouldn't want Him to)
His arms are constantly stretched out,
waiting for another lost soul to guide home
He stretched His arms on a cross,
and had them pierced 2,000 years ago
And now His hand is reaching towards yours
So lift up your hands, don't hesitate to recieve
Lift up your hands, all you have to do is believe
Lift up your hands, He'll show you what true love is
Lift up your hands, He's longing to touch you
Lift up your hands, He's yearning to hold you
Lift up your hands, He died to be with you
Lift up your hands, Let Him take you home,
and to places you've never dreamed of
Lift up your hands, just rest in His loving arms
Lift up your hands, don't turn Him away
Lift up your hands, He's wanting to save you
Let go of your burdens
Let go of your doubts
Let go of your pride...
and realize... He's the God
you can't live without
Lift up your hands
