Lift Me Up
Puretone Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lord, My God, in the morning
Show me how I can serve you today

Lord, My God, in the evening
Let my song rise up to you.

I know that your are holy,
I know that I'm unclean

And I'm afraid to come into your presence
To call upon your name
From all the way down here.

Chorus
So I say
Lift me up
From my lowly estate
Lift me up
Where I can see you clothed in Majesty and light
(Repeat)

If you'd saved even one man
Surely this is undeserved
But the saints by your mercy
Stand with you uncountable
Isn't this not amazing
Isn't your name grace
Aren't you the sovereign God of justice
Haven't we offended
Did we not crucify
Guess that we can only wonder why

(Chorus)

Lord, My God, in the morning
Dear God, as I start my day, show me how I can serve you today.

Lord, My God, in the evening
Dear God, as my day ends, may my song of praise reach up to you.

I know that your are holy,
I am aware of your holiness,

I know that I'm unclean
I know that I am imperfect,

And I'm afraid to come into your presence
That is why I am fearful to come before you,

To call upon your name
And seek your help,

From all the way down here.
As I am unworthy down here on earth.

So I say
Thus, I pray

Lift me up
Lift me from my low state

From my lowly estate
From my unworthy position,

Lift me up
Raise me up
