[Verse 1]
In a dream, I was walking in a beautiful field
I was gathering flowers at the foot of a hill
When a bright light descended and it spread over the land
Jesus stood on the mountain and He held out His hand
[Verse 2]
Then He came down from the mountain, headed down to the sea
And the children strowed flowers in the path at His feet
And He was filled with compassion and the beasts from the wild
Came as gentle as lambs and they all walked at His side
[Verse 3]
There's a calm on the water, a hush in the crowd
There's peace in the valley, there's a stillness about
There's a light in the darkness, there's joy in His love
Ain't that a wonderful feeling? Let us lift Him up
[Verse 4]
Then He suddenly vanished from the crowd down below
He appeared on the mountain in a radiant glow
He said, "your questions are many, but the answer is love"
"I'll draw all men unto me if I be lifted up"
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a calm on the water, a hush in the crowd
There's peace in the valley, there's a stillness about
There's a light in the darkness, there's joy in His love
There is life everlasting, let us lift Him up
[Chorus]
He said if I
Be lifted up
He said if I be lifted up
What did he say?
He said if I
Be lifted up
He said if I be lifted up
[Bridge]
Let's lift Him higher and higher
And higher and higher each day
Let's lift Him up
He said if I
Be lifted up
Oh if I be lifted up
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a calm on the water, a hush in the crowd
There's peace in the valley, there's a stillness about
There's a light in the darkness, there's joy in His love
There is life everlasting, let us lift Him up
[Chorus]
He said if I
Be lifted up
He said if I be lifted up, what did he say
He said if I
Be lifted up
He said if I be lifted up
