(Introduction)
(Verse 1) When life is hard, and burdens rise, In prayer You lift me up, O God. When tears of sorrow fill my eyes, In prayer You lift me up, O God. (Chorus) For I behold Your lovely face And sense Your presence in this place; I feel Your arms in sweet embrace. In prayer You lift me up, O God. (Verse 2) When troubles come and cares abound, In prayer You lift me up, O God. When evil rages all around, In prayer You lift me up, O God. (Repeat Chorus) For I behold Your lovely face And sense Your presence in this place; I feel Your arms in sweet embrace. In prayer You lift me up, O God. (Bridge) In prayer my tears and burdens flee; In prayer Your mercy covers me. In prayer no foe has victory; In prayer You lift me up. For I behold Your lovely face And sense Your presence in this place; I feel Your arms in sweet embrace. In prayer You lift me up! (Modified Chorus) O how I love Your lovely face! I love Your presence in this place! I love Your arms in sweet embrace! In prayer You lift me up, O God. (Ending) Lift me up, O God... Lift me up, O God... Lift me up!
