Hymn/Song Information

To heaven I lift my waiting eyes There all my hope




To heaven I lift my waiting eyes,
There all my hopes are laid;
The Lord that built the earth and skies,
Is my perpetual aid.


Their steadfast feet shall never fall
Whom he designs to keep;
His ear attends their humble call,
His eyes can never sleep.


Israel, rejoice, and rest secure;
Thy keeper is the Lord;
His wakeful eyes employ his power
For thine eternal guard.


He guards thy soul, he keeps thy breath
Where thickest dangers come;
Go and return, secure from death,
Till God commands thee home.


---Alternative verses---


To heaven I lift my waiting eyes,
There all my hopes are laid;
The Lord, who built. the earth and skies,
Is my perpetual aid.


He guards thy soul, he keeps thy breath
Where thickest dangers come;
Go and return, secure from death,
Till God shall call thee home.
