I Will Lift My Eyes // A Poem

I Will Lift My Eyes

Written by Brooklyne 

I will lift my eyes 

To the hills 

From whence comes my help?

My help comes

From the Lord 

Who made heaven and earth. 

I will lift my eyes 

To the One

Who is sovereignty 

For God has 

Supreme power

And shows loving kindness 

I will lift my eyes

To the heights 

For if God is for me

Who shall be 

Against me?

God has already won

I will lift my eyes

To Jesus 

The lamb of God who

Undeservingly  

Was slain for me 

A selfless sacrifice 

I will lift my eyes 

To my Savior 

Who rescues and saves

The weak, frail 

And weary 

He’s my anchor in the storm 

I will life my eyes 

From the waves 

And the wind so fierce 

For greater Hands 

Hold me than 

That which is in the world 

I will life my eyes 

To the Lord 

My Heavenly Father

Prince of Piece 

Deliverer 

From whence comes my help!

Psalm 121:1,2 NKJV

"I will lift up my eyes to the hills-- From whence comes my help? 

My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth."

Sometimes I forget to "lift my eyes" to Jesus from all my worries and troubles. It's easy to get so absorbed in life happenings to forget to look up and know that God has already won the victory! This poem is to serve as a reminder to keep our eyes on Jesus amidst the storms in our life, He will never let you down. 

This poem reminded me of this song ^^ and I thought I would included it in today's post!  

What did you think of this poem? Was there a verse that stood out to you in some way? Have you heard the song "Look Up Child" by Lauren Daigle before? What are some ways that we can focus on Jesus more, and our worries less? I'll see you in the comments below!
