The Best of All ‎#101

101. Lift me Higher

1 Lift me higher, blessed Saviour,
By Thy resurrection might,
More and more, in hope abounding,
Growing upward in Thy light.

Refrain:
Lift me higher, Lift me higher
Lift me higher, Heavenly Friend,
Till I see Thee in Thy beauty
Where immortal praises blend.

2 Lift me higher, blessed Saviour,
More like Thee in faith and love;
May I find, in faithful service,
Fellowship with Thee above. [Refrain]

3 Lift me higher, blessed Saviour,
All my life with blessing fraught;
Purer be my pray’rs and longings,
Nobler, deed, and word, and thought. [Refrain]

4 Lift me higher, blessed Saviour,
Grace for grace, each moment new,
So may I, with Christ-like spirit,
Help to lift another too. [Refrain]
