I lift my eyes up to the Hills

From where does my help come?

My help comes from the Maker of

The heavens and the earth

He will not let my foot be moved

He keeps my journey safe


CHORUS

O my soul, praise the Lord most high

Strong to save, He upholds my life

Forevermore, He will be my light

I lift my eyes up to the Lord most high


He is the shade at my right hand

My shelter in the storm

No sun by day, nor moon by night

Shall ever bring me harm

He will not slumber, will not sleep

He watches all my ways


CHORUS


I lift my eyes up to the hills

From where does my help come

My help comes from the Maker of

The heavens and the earth

The God of Isr?l is my guide

Wherever I may go

And in His strength I will abide

Until He leads me home
