I Will Lift Up My Eyes

[Intro]
C G/B Am7 Am7/G D/F# Em C D
[Refrain]
C G/B Am7 Am7/G D/F# Em C D
I will lift up my eyes at his name to the one who knows me well
C G/B Am7 Am7/G D/F# Em C D
I will lift up my eyes at his name to the one who knows me well

[Verse 1]
D/C Gsus4 Cmaj9 D
You are my God, whom I seek with my life;
D/C Fmaj9 Am Dsus4
For you I thirst, as the dry earth for water.
Dsus4/C Em Cmaj9 Dmaj9
Lifeless and parched, without you I am nowhere, no-one at all.

[Verse 2]
D/C Gsus4 Cmaj9 D
Thus have I seen you in your holy house,
D/C Fmaj9 Am Dsus4
With my own eyes, how faithful and sure.
Dsus4/C Em Cmaj9 Dmaj9
More than my life, your mercy endures longer than time.

[Verse 3]
D/C Gsus4 Cmaj9 D
Thus shall I bless you while I am alive;
D/C Fmaj9 Am Dsus4
Calling on you, my breath and my bread.
Dsus4/C Em Cmaj9 Dmaj9
And with a song through day and the darkness clinging to you.

[Verse 4]
G C G D D/C Em C
And I shall see that day when God’s justice and pow’r
G C G Dsus4 Dsus4/C
will break the chains that bind me.
Em C G D Em D Cmaj9
And mine enemies’ lies strewn broken and empty:
Dsus4 Em Am7 Am7/G D/F# Em C Dsus4
God’s mighty hand, that awful grace.
