Gospel Lyrics >> Song Title :: Lift My Eyes Gospel Lyrics >> Song Artist :: Jill Paquette
Throwing off the fetters and working on a smile Because it's time that I felt better oh than I have in a while I want to say I need You--don't leave until I try 'Cause I've been holding onto shadows, holding them inside And they come from what I've learned in life And they put my faith to the test Testing my drive, pulling me under But hope won't be kept down forever
Lift my eyes I've seen light lost to darkness But You made a promise So lift my eyes Trusting You will be faithful I'll do all that I'm able Believing there's freedom in a life lived forgiven
No room here for the both of you but who should I ask to go? One holding out my pardon, one holding all I've ever known Love tells me without speaking resonating in my soul With a light that's ever reaching, ever letting me go
And some things make me want to hide from life And some things put my faith to the test Testing my drive and it's not over Oh no it's not nearly finished yet
Lift my eyes I've seen light lost to darkness But You made a promise So lift my eyes Trusting You will be faithful I'll do all that I'm able Believing there's freedom in a life lived forgiven
