Help from the Hills
By larry r Linville

(Psalm 121:1. “I will lift up my eyes to the hills – where does my help come from?)

Lift up your eyes and look for help.
God’s help is surely there.
The secret of your happiness
depends on where you stare.

It’s hard to feel encouragement
when you are looking down.
When your focus in on the ground
your face will wear a frown.

So look to the hills – God made them
to give you added power.
When others seem to be failing
You’ll have your finest hour.

It’s also good to show a friend
where they can find the hills
and help them lift their eyes above
to fill their lives with thrills.

And don’t let others bring you down
while looking at your feet
just change your vision higher up
so you’ll avoid retreat.
