Lifted









Lifted

In this small word, I see life…
More abundantly than on Earth-
Centered upon one miraculous birth.
Mary lifted and held our Saviour, Jesus.


This word invites my eyes to look up
Knowing
My merciful Lord is looking

From the Heavens in His glory crown.



Our Lord of Life was the One who

me
when I was trapped in darkness
and couldn't set myself free.

I cried
He answered.
My tears He dried…
And emptied my heart of pride.

My Saviour lifted me up.
I smiled…He did too.
A new song is sung
As I lift my voice
to rejoice
In
His
Salvation.


Psalm 118:14
The Lord is my strength and song,
and is become my salvation.


Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
