I Will Lift My Eyes

 

(verse1)

D            Bm7            A

God, my God,  I cry out

                G2                             D

Your beloved needs you now.

D             Bm7                   A

God be near, calm my fear

             G2

And take my doubt

 

 

(pre-chorus)

D/F#     G                 A            Bm7

Your kindness is what pulls me up

Your love is all that draws me in.

 

 

(CHORUS)

I will lift my eyes to the Maker of the mountains I can’t climb.

I will lift my eyes to the Calmer of the oceans raging wild.

I will lift my eyes to the Healer of the hurt I hold inside.

I will lift my eyes, lift my eyes to You.

Her melody over me.

Is all of me
