There was a time when I was sure that you would never leave me There was a time when I was confident that you would always come And you would wrap me in your arms and give me consolation
There was a time when just a word from you would cause my fears to run
But now there’s only silence
Chorus:
I lift my eyes to the hills
From where does my help come?
My help comes from the Lord
Maker of heaven and earth
There was a time when things unfolded just the way that I had planned
There was a time when I was sure that I could make it on my own
A thousand could fall on my left hand and ten thousand on my right But it never came near me; I was reaping all the good seeds I had sown
But now there’s only sorrow
CHORUS
There was a time when growing older never crept into my mind
There was a time when I grew proud that I was beautiful and strong
I never bothered to consider that my life was not my own
And everything I’ve worked so hard to build would not my life prolong Now my time is over
CHORUS
There was a time when just a word from you would cause my fears to run
But now there’s only silence
Chorus:
I lift my eyes to the hills
From where does my help come?
My help comes from the Lord
Maker of heaven and earth
There was a time when things unfolded just the way that I had planned
There was a time when I was sure that I could make it on my own
A thousand could fall on my left hand and ten thousand on my right But it never came near me; I was reaping all the good seeds I had sown
But now there’s only sorrow
CHORUS
There was a time when growing older never crept into my mind
There was a time when I grew proud that I was beautiful and strong
I never bothered to consider that my life was not my own
And everything I’ve worked so hard to build would not my life prolong Now my time is over
CHORUS
