Lift me up
Lift me up
Lift me up

Down here in the valley of the shadow, you see
As it's our story
Down here in the valley, every puddle of mud
Comes from tears and blood

And it's so hard just to get warned
That the chill turns into despair

Will You lift me up?
With tender care
Will You wash me?
Clean in the palm of Your hands

Will You hold me close?
So I can thrive
When You touch me
That's when I know I'm alive

Down here in the valley, nothin's able to grow
Cause the light's too low
Folks spend their days, diggin' for diamonds and gold
Till they just get old
And they don't know anything else
They don't know they're breathin' hot air
But I'm tired of livin' like this
And my soul cries out if You're there

Will You lift me up?
With tender care
Will You wash me?
Clean in the palm of Your hands

Lord, hold me close
So I can thrive
When You touch me
That's when I know I'm alive

Lift me up
Lift me up

Will you lift me up?
With tender care
Will You wash me?
Clean in the palm of Your hands

Lord, hold me close
So I can thrive
When You touch me
That's when I know I'm alive
Lord, lift me up
With tender care
Will You wash me?
Clean in the palm of Your hands

Lord, hold me close
So I can thrive
When You touch me
That's when I know I'm alive

Lift me up
Lift me up
