I Lift my eyes up psalm 121


Last night I went to church with a friend. It was more of a youth group than a church really. We enjoyed our time, sharing about Courage Homes. I was just there for moral support. Anyway.....

We sang the song, "I Lift My Eyes Up." I have sung it many times, but this was the first time I saw it from the eyes of a girl stuck in slavery. I pictured a girl in a dark, small room, with a window with bars on it. She is looking out of the bars as she sings her prayer to God, the only one she can ask to help her.

Oh, now I see the words. Yep, I've been thinking about your reflections on that song all day.
