Be Lifted


The hour has come when the Son of Man is lifted up
He is received up to heaven in victory
And seated in the right hand of Father
People from far and wide see this enlightening ray
That filled the Earth from the love of his grace

Holy hands are lifted up
Meek and poor rise up to soar
To tell the world of this majestic ray
That comes and swallows the chains of death

Mightier and mightier stands he at the gates
And Judgment follows at his call
Ever and ever he will be named
A name higher than any other name

What is this shout of alarming cry?
Is this not the mighty power making the dead arise?
The song that still sings and worship shall still speaks of wonders
How unspeakable is the hour of praise?
When the congregation lifts up his name to pray
