Winter winds have gone and faded
I told the skies of thoughts of gray
Tears upon my pillow laying
A child lost to pain
I pray for better days
Lift me up
Lead me from this place
Let your love be mercy on my face
Rising up, I changed before your eyes
Out of darkness, standing in the light
Heaven hoped you'd come and change me
Out of that, just make me whole
Lift me up and recreate me
And help me overcome myself
Lead me from hell
Lift me up
Lead me from this place
Let your love be mercy on my face
Rising up, I changed before your eyes
Out of darkness, standing in the light
I'm rising up, I'm moving on
Give me strength to carry on
I feel the light upon my face
I hear the angels' words of grace
My broken wings will never fly
Lift me up and justify
I'm standing up, I'm standing out
I feel the warmth come crashing down
Lift me up
Lead me from this place
Let your love be mercy on my face
Rising up, I've changed before your eyes
Out of darkness, standing in the light
