The Afters, “Lift Me Up”

Contemporary Christian pop-rock band The Afters are following their #1 hit Light Up the Sky with Lift Me Up, the second radio single lifted off Never Going Back to Okay. If Light Up the Sky was a prayer asking God to be there in the midst of difficulty, Lift Me Up is an honest declaration of faith in a God Who never ceases to support, and never fails to provide. Cloyingly artificial drumbeats notwithstanding, Lift Me Up is a solid track of a song with an irresistible vocal touch in the chorus that will make it an easy choice for Christian AC and Christian Soft AC/Inspo programmers. Lift Me Up could very well be The Afters’ next #1 hit.

LIFT ME UP Lyrics
The Afters

You lift me up (with Your love)

I’m waiting for the sunrise
Waiting for the day
Waiting for a sign that I’m where you want me to be
I know my heart is heavy
And the hurt is deep
But when I feel like giving up
You’re reminding me

That we all fall down sometimes
But when I hit the ground

You lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go
You lift me up when I can’t see
Your heart’s all that I need
Your love carries me so I’m letting go

You lift me up (with Your love)

I know I’m not perfect
I know I make mistakes
I know that I have let you down
But you love me the same
And when I’m surrounded
When I lose my way
When I’m crying out and falling down
You are here to

Lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go
You lift me up when I can’t see
Your heart’s all that I need
Your love carries me so I’m letting go

I can see that dawn is breaking
I am feeling overtaken
With Your love
With Your love
I don’t know what I can offer
In this moment I surrender
To Your love
To Your love

You lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go

You lift me up (with Your love)
