people in the wilderness longing for relief
from the self-inflicted wounds we bear
see the Saviour lifted high, all our sin and shame
nailed upon a cross as Jesus dies

lift your eyes, lift your eyes

to save us You were lifted high
but death could not defeat You
raised up to the Father’s side
we’re alive cause You were lifted high, lifted high

people in the world today longing for a Home
stumbling in the mess we made long ago
see the Saviour standing there, nailed scarred hands open wide
welcoming the children in to the Light

lift your eyes, lift your eyes

Chorus
