By Ken Blue
Oh, my soul, why art thou cast down,
When God’s blessings everywhere abound?
The windows are open; love flows down.
Oh, my soul, why art thou canst down?
Oh, my soul, why are thou disquieted in me?
Is it some physical infirmity?
Is it because friends are removed from me?
Oh, my soul, why are thou disquieted in me?
I will say to my soul, lift up thy head,
To the Great Healer with wings overspread.
My lot is not forever, in this sick bed.
I will say to my soul, lift up thy head!
God is my strength in my time of sorrow.
His grace is sufficient today and tomorrow.
All His precepts are true, from them l will borrow.
God is my strength in my time of sorrow.
So, if your lot is a sick bed,
Say to thy soul, lift up thy head.
The Healer’s wings are overspread;
Say to thy soul, lift up thy head.
