Lyrics:
Count them, every one All of the million things you’ve done You are the Lord of my life And I roll them over and over In my head, In my head But I don’t understand But I’m glad You’re in my life
CHORUS And I lift You up so high I forget about the world that I’m living in I lay it at Your feet I’m giving in My joy inside I cannot hide I love to lift You up
Lord I love You You’re a Father’s hand at night You’re the sunshine in the day And I long to be with You All my days In old age if I’m still hanging around I’ll be found around with You
CHORUS
Lift You up, lift You up So high, so high Lift You up, lift You up And I lift You up so high
And I lift You up so high I forget about the world that I’m living in I lay it at Your feet I’m giving in
I love to lift You up

Behind the Song: 'This song became the theme of the whole album – and in essence, it’s a worship song. It’s a vertical song that is lifted towards God. It talks about how when we lift Him up, we forget about the world we’re living in. It’s that feeling you get when you’re totally at peace – completely in love and forgiven – when you’re worshipping God. Musically, it’s got this lush guitar pass and is another rock and roll worship moment on the record. It takes you right to the throne of God.' - Mark Stuart (Audio Adrenaline)
