I Will Lift My Eyes

Below are the lyrics to the song we have posted on the right side of the page. Feel free to listen to it and reflect on the words in contains. God's love is incredible! This is such a wonderful explaination of how we are feeling right now...that we just need Him and we need to know that, no matter what the circumstances, we are being loved and cared for and we are not alone in our journey.

We are anxious about going to meet with "J" this weekend, but excited all the same. I feel it is so important for her to know us...really know us, and for us to know her and her boyfriend. I want to know everything so that, some day, I can share everything I've learned about them with Zack and help him to understand just how much he is love.

"I Will Lift My Eyes"

God, my God, I cry out

Your beloved needs you now

God be near, calm my fear

And take my doubt

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

God, my God, let Mercy sing

Her melody over me

God, right here all I bring

Is all of me

Your kindness is what pulls me up

Your love is all that draws me in

Chorus:

‘Cause You are and You were and You will be forever

The Lover I need to save me

‘Cause You fashioned the earth and You hold it together, God

So hold me now
