Lift Up Your Head

Breathe, darling, breathe

It's not yet time for you to leave

Don't lose hope

Let your heart believe and hold out faith

Sunrise rays

Shining down upon your face

Prophesy

An appointed end to suffering


Love will have its day

Keep on in the way


Lift up your head, lift up your head

Your sorrow, you'll forget when the joy comes quickly

Crying will end, wounds He will mend

And stories be penned of the faithful


Turn your face to the rising sun

While you wait, while you wait

For redemption to come

Lift up your head


Sorrow comes

In losing what you wanted

Expectation face

Another wait the heart begins to faint

Hold out hope

You can't yet see

What's right around the corner

The dark night will be over


He never promised it'd be easy

Never said there'd be no trouble

Lift up your head, for you know He's overcome

And when your strength is weak

And in tears you're swimming deep

He promised redemption to those

Who would wait patiently


Oh... There is redemption coming
