I cannot lift mine eyes

Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the East #43 (1907) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: I I cannot lift mine eyes, For, O, my sin is great,— High as the hills that rise Up, up to heaven’s gate,— I cannot lift mine eyes, So great my sin, so great. II But I would smite my breast, And bow me at the Cross, And well He knows the rest, My pain, my grief, my loss;— Yea, I would smite my breast, And bow me at His Cross. III Mayhap when I have told The burden of my sin, He’ll make my spirit bold, And speak, and soothe, and win;— All this when I have told The burden of my sin. IV Then shall I lift mine eyes, And see the sin removed, And in the radiant skies Behold the Well Beloved;— Then shall I lift mine eyes, And see my sin removed. Topics: Aspirations Languages: English

I cannot lift mine eyes

Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns of the Russian Church #64 (1920) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: I cannot lift mine eyes, For O, my sin is great,-- High as the hills that rise Up, up to heaven's gate;-- I cannot lift mine eyes, So great my sin, so great. But I would smite my breast, And bow me at the Cross; And well He knows the rest, My sense of shame, and loss; Yea, I would smite my breast, And bow me at His Cross. Mayhap when I have told The burden of my sin, He'll make my spirit bold, And speak, and soothe, and win;-- All this when I have told The burden of my sin. Then shall I lift mine eyes, And see the sin removed, And in the cloudless skies Behold the Well-Beloved;-- Then shall I lift mine eyes, And see my sin removed. Languages: English
