If I Be Lifted Up

(traditional)

Down in the valley while on my knees
I asked my jesus carry please
He promised that hed take care of me
If I would lift him up

He said if i
Be lifted up
He said if i
Be lifted up
I ll be your father
Ill be your mother
Ill be your sister
And your brother

He said if i
Be lifted up
Ill bring joy, joy, joy
To your soul

When I am lonely
When I am sad
My jesus comes and makes me glad
He is the dearest friend Ive have had
I want to lift him up

He said if i
Be lifted up
He said if i
Be lifted up
I ll be your father
Ill be your mother
Ill be your sister
And your brother

He said if i
Be lifted up
Ill bring joy, joy, joy
To your soul
