You lifted me lifted me up
You lifted me lifted me up
So my praise will never come down

I am set free
From thΠ΅ lies told me to me
There is no doubt in my mind
This is who iβ€²m meant to be

You lifted me lifted me up

You have redeemed me
From shame to worthy
And you have restored me
From broken to beautiful

And you have restored me
From broken to beautiful
You have redeemed me
From shame to worthy
And you have restored me
From broken to beautiful

You lifted me lifted me up
You lifted me lifted me up
So my praise will never come down
My praise will never come down
So my praise will never come down




My praise will never come down
So my praise will never come down
