lyrics

Lift up your eyes, set not your mind
On all the world runs after
The things they crave, their empty praise
Quickly vanish like a mist
With nothing we began this life
With nothing we will leave it
Except the souls that Christ made whole
With His precious, healing blood

Lift up your eyes beyond the skies
To where your Savior’s seated
Your life which once was found below
Now is hidden there in Him
Where myriads of angels praise
With righteous saints made perfect
In joy and peace that never cease
Flowing from the throne of God

O lift up your eyes, every treasure below
Is as nothing next to knowing the Savior
O lift up your eyes, make His kingdom your home
Your ambition, just to hear the words “well done”

Lift up Your tearful, weary eyes
This world is not your harbor
Each heavy plight is truly light
When compared to heaven’s gold
Cast off the weight of worldliness
And follow with endurance
He, who for us, endured the cross
Looking to the great reward

(Chorus)

Your life which once was found below
Now is hidden there in Him
