Down in the valley while on my knees    I asked my Jesus carry please    He promised that he'd take care of me    If I would lift him up       He said if I    Be lifted up    He said if I    Be lifted up    I 'll be your father    I'll be your mother    I'll be your sister    And your brother       He said if I    Be lifted up    I'll bring joy, joy, joy    To your soul       When I am lonely    When I am sad    My Jesus comes and makes me glad    He is the dearest friend I've have had    I want to lift Him up       He said if I    Be lifted up    He said if I    Be lifted up    I 'll be your father    I'll be your mother    I'll be your sister    And your brother       He said if I    Be lifted up    I'll bring joy, joy, joy    To your soul
