[Intro]
G   Em7   C
[Verse 1]
GWho was there from the beginning Set the land upon the sea
Em7Shined a light into the darkness Created every living thing
GWho knit a soul together Into a perfect masterpiece
Em7Breathe a breath inside my lungs  ACnd give my heart a steady beaGt
[Verse 2]
GWho commands the sun by morning Paints the colors of the sky
Em7Brings the moon out in the evening To accompany the night
GWho will walk me through the valley like a shadow by my side
Em7In times of trouble be my refuge aCnd drive the darkness out with light
[Chorus]
GI lift my eyes up to the mountains
Em7My help comes from the Lord
CThe maker of heaven and earth
GI lift my eyes up to the mountains

CThe maker of heaven and earth

G   Em7   C
[Verse 3]
GWho's the architect and artist from whom the galaxies take shape
Em7Holds the universe together aCnd knows every star by name
GWho's superior in wonder yet identifies my pain
Em7On the clouds will roll with thunder aCnd bring forgiveness like the rain
[Verse 4]
GWho would leave his throne in heaven and step down to the earth
Em7Choose an ordinary woman and to the Son of God give birth
GWho would take a sinner's cross climb a hill and die for me
Em7Engrave my name into his haCnds only Jesus Christ, my King
