When you're standing alone
And you're feeling so weary
And you feel there's no way
That you can go on
Just look up towards heaven
And you'll find the answer
For God still sits on his throne
Chorus
And he'll look down in mercy
And wipe away those teardrops
He'll take you by the hand
And say let me be your friendYour way will seem much brighter
Your burdens seem lighter
If you will just let Jesus in.
IIOver mountains he will guide you
Through valleys walk beside you
And life's rivers he will help you to cross
Just keep your face turned toward heaven
And your eyes upon the Father
And make your way to the foot of the cross
IIIThen when your life here is over
And you stand before the Father
Up there on that heavenly shore
With joy you'll bow down and worship
The One who has loved you
Up there you'll sing his praise evermore
