Lord Lift Me

Nancie    Norton
Oh Lord lift up mine eyes to see
That no matter, what the problem be
When, by others I feel forsaken
You are always there for me

Oh Lord lift up my heart to care
For people who are not like me
To know, that they have feelings too
On this, our world should all agree

Oh Lord lift up my spirit
I want to praise your Holy name
And help me remember always that
You know where I'm going,and from where I came

Oh Lord, you are the shepherd
We are your wandering sheep
You keep us on the right path all day
And you protect us while we sleep

Oh Lord, lift up my words
So I can touch a wayward soul
Telling of your love, and forgiveness
As you bring them into your fold.
