Lift Me Up

The sun sets low on this lonesome land
A picture of her still lays in my hand
The fields are silent
The barn's growin' cold
But her love still warms my weary soul
Lift me up to heaven
Let me see her face
In the arms of Angels
in that sacred place
I'll hold her close like I did so many times before
So lift me up to heaven
Let me love her once more
Lift me up
Our old oak sways in the evening breeze
Her laughter lingers on our swing of memories
The porch light's on
How it shined on her hair
Said she loved the smell of sweet Jasmine
In the midnight air
So lift me up to heaven
Let me see her face
In the arms of Angels
in that sacred place
I'll hold her close like I did so many times before
So lift me up to heaven
Let me love her once more...
(Lift me up)
Preacher said she's watchin' me
A guiding star I'll someday see
But Lord it's hard to wait down here
When all I wanna do is hold her near
So lift me up to heaven
Let me see her face
In the arms of Angels
in that sacred place
I'll hold her close like I did so many times before
So lift me up to heaven
Let me love her once more
(Lift me up)
Lift me up
Lord lift me up
