If I Be Lifted Up


 (Traditional)

 Down in the valley while on my knees 
 I asked my Jesus carry please 
 He promised that he'd 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 
 I'll be your mother 
 I'll be your sister 
 And your brother 

 He said if I 
 Be lifted up 
 I'll 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 I've 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 
 I'll be your mother 
 I'll be your sister 
 And your brother 

 He said if I 
 Be lifted up 
 I'll bring joy, joy, joy 
 To your soul
