[Verse 1:]
My world was shaken
My heart was broken
My hope was fading
The walls were closing in
But now I'm singing
Look how He lifted me
[Verse 2:]
My life was sinking
My days were numbered
The waves were crashing
The flood was coming in
Oh Hallelujah
Look how He lifted me
[Chorus:]
Look how He lifted me
His grace and mercy is my testimony
For every victory
I've got a song to sing
Look how He lifted me!
Whoa-o-oh
Whoa-o-o-oh
[x3]
[Verse 3:]
He turned my mourning
Back into dancing
He turned my weeping
Into a shout again
And now I'm singing
Look how He lifted me
[Verse 4:]
He rolled my sorrows
Away at calvary
He rose in triumph
Over the enemy
Oh Hallelujah
Look how he lifted me
[Chorus]:
Oh, look how He lifted me
His grace and mercy
Is my testimony
For every victory
I've got a song to sing
Look how He lifted me!
Whoa-o-oh
Whoa-o-o-oh
[x3]
[Bridge:]
When nothing else could help
Your love came down
Your love came down
When nothing else could help
Your love came down
And lifted me
[x2]
[Chorus:]
Oh, look how He lifted me
His grace and mercy
Is my testimony
For every victory
I've got a song to sing
[x2]
Look how He lifted me!
Whoa-o-oh
Whoa-o-o-oh
[x3]
