Verse:
Only in You will I find hope
You are strong, in the midst of the storm
And when everything burns around me
I will trust You, You lift me up .

Chorus:
You lift me up high
Above all the difficulties
I rest assured
In Your arms God
You lift me up high
Whatever happened is in the past
The victory is in Your hands
So I run toward the goal .

Bridge:
I rest assured
The victory is in Your hands
You lift me up high .
