Lift Me Up Lyrics

One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek

That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life

To behold the beauty of the LORD

And to meditate in His temple

For in the day of trouble He'll conceal me in His shelter

In the secret place of His tent He'll hide me

He will lift me up on a rock

In the clefts of the rock, that's where I find your love

I'm drowning in your presence, that's what I'm mindful of

I call upon your name, and connect with you in Spirit

I tune my heart to God, oh Lord, your voice let me hear it

For your voice is mighty, like the sound of many waters

A love beyond measure where there aren't any borders

In the secret place, that's where I see your face

The Lord is slow to anger, merciful, and full of grace

Your love is like the finest wine, I come and grab a taste

You'll cast out none who come to you, I welcome your embrace

Your everlasting arms, yeah, they hold me tight

You get me through the coldest winter and the darkest night

Forever Jesus Christ is my strength and my light

Then whom shall I fear, He's the defense of my life

And though my adversaries come to devour my flesh

They all stumble and fall, while in His presence I rest

I love You, O LORD, my strength

The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer

My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge

I was sinking, I was falling, but you picked me up

My foes all around tryna sift me up

Jesus, you my rock when everything gets tough

Cause in the day of trouble you will lift me up

Drinking living water, so I lift my cup

And of the Holy Spirit, I can't get enough

Your love fills me up, so my soul is overflowing

Being led by you, I never know where I be going

But, you take my hand, and I walk by faith and

You said you'd never leave me and I'm never forsaken

The LORD's by my side so I'll never be shaken

You came to my rescue like the father in Taken

You ride upon the cherub and you fly upon the winds

And you take me in under the shadow of your wings

And it's in that place, nothing can separate

Me from your loving grace, neither time nor space

Neither death, nor life, nor depth, or height

Arrows flying by day, or of the terrors of night

Of pestilence or plague I'll never be afraid

Cause all who trust in your name will never be dismayed

The Lord is our refuge and strength

A very present help in trouble

Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change

And the mountains slip into the heart of the sea

I was sinking, I was falling, but you picked me up

My foes all around tryna sift me up

Jesus, you my rock when everything gets tough

Cause in the day of trouble you will lift me up

Enter your courts with thanksgiving and praise

Longing to dwell in your house all of my days

Constantly amazed as I gaze on your beauty

The judge of all and I ain't talkin' bout Judy

You lift me up, set my feet upon the rock

Great Shepard of the flock, always keeping watch

My protector and provider, bought my soul up out the mire

I find my rest in you like Bilbo Baggins in the Shire

Joy of my desire, you're an all consuming fire

And my lips will praise you like I'm singin' in the choir

You're my strength and my song, my enemies gone

You broke through my darkness like the light of the dawn

Cause at my cry you arose, you shattered my foes

You shielded me from evil and you took all my blows

Broke all my enemies' bows, cause I'm the one that you chose

And now I'm clothed with your Spirit from the head to my toes

I would've despaired unless I'd believed that I'd see

The goodness of the LORD in the land of the living

Wait for the LORD; Be strong and let your heart take courage

I was sinking, I was falling, but you picked me up

My foes all around tryna sift me up

Jesus, you my rock when everything gets tough

Cause in the day of trouble you will lift me up

In the day of trouble, you will lift me up

In the day of trouble, you will lift me up

In the day of trouble, you will lift me up

Cause in the day of trouble you will lift me up

I was sinking, I was falling, but you picked me up

My foes all around tryna sift me up

Jesus, you my rock when everything gets tough

Cause in the day of trouble you will lift me up
