Yeah, mmm
He’s one who can lift you up
Oh, that’s right
When the shadows stretch across the floor
And you’re knocking on a closed and heavy door
Don’t you worry 'bout the state you're in
Or the heavy weight beneath your skin
God is the lifter, he knows your name
He’ll pull you out of the burning flame
When the world tells you that you’re small
He’s the only one to catch your fall
He is the lifter, yeah, the only one
He’ll raise you up until the work is done
Oh, He will lift you, lift you high
He’s the morning star within the sky
He is the lifter, yeah, the only one
He’ll raise you up until the work is done
Oh, He will lift you, lift you high
He’s the only one who hears your cry
Even if the family turned their back on you
And the road you walk is feeling far from new
Don’t you let your spirit start to fade
In the quiet promises that he has made
Just lean on him, keep your heart aligned
Leave the bitter yesterday behind
Swing it now, feel the grace descend
He is the beginning and the end
He is the lifter, yeah, the only one
He’ll raise you up until the work is done
Oh, He will lift you, lift you high
He’s the morning star within the sky
He is the lifter, yeah, the only one
He’ll raise you up until the work is done
Oh, He will lift you, lift you high
He’s the only one who hears your cry
So let the brass section blow
Let the piano melody grow
He’s lifting, he’s shifting the atmosphere
There’s no room left for doubt or fear
Yeah, he’s moving, yeah he’s rising
Grace is truly surprising
If the people cast you out of the crowd
And the voices of the cynics are too loud
Don't you fear the words they say today
Just keep on walking in the narrow way
Trust the lifter, look up to the light
He is guiding you through the darkest night
Yeah, he’s lifting, he’s reaching down
To place upon your head a golden crown
He is the lifter, yeah, the only one
He’ll raise you up until the work is done
Oh, He will lift you, lift you high
He’s the morning star within the sky
He is the lifter, yeah, the only one
He’ll raise you up until the work is done
Oh, He will lift you, lift you high
He’s the only one who hears your cry
He’s the lifter, oh yeah
He’s the only one
Keep your head up, keep looking up
Oh, he’s lifting you now, mmm
That’s right, he lifts us all
Yeah, he lifts.
