I was once so downhearted
Disappointment was my closest friend
But then you came and he soon departed
And now I've never seen his face again

Your love is lifting me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
So keep it up, quench my desire
And I'll be at your side forever more

You know your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keeps on lifting (your love keeps lifting me)
Higher (lifting me, lifting me), higher, and higher (higher)
I said your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keeps on (lifting me, lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me) higher and higher (higher)

Now once I was downhearted
Disappointment was my closest friend
But then you came and he soon departed
And now he's never shown his face again

Because your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keeps on lifting (your love keeps lifting me)
Higher (lifting me, lifting me), higher, and higher (higher)
I said your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keeps on (lifting me, lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me) higher and higher (higher)

I'm so glad that I finally found you
Yes, that one in a million girls
And I wish my loving arms around ya
I can stand up and face the world

I said your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keeps on lifting (your love keeps lifting me)
Higher (lifting me, lifting me), higher, and higher (higher)
I said your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keeps on (lifting me, lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me) higher and higher (higher)
