Eyes to the Hills-verse melody derived from W ZLO¬BIE LE¬ZY (Polish for He Lies in the Cradle) and verse lyrics from Here’s a Promise, Copyright © 2010 by Carolyn Winfrey Gillette used by permission.

lyrics

I set my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord ‘making earth and heaven.

Here's a promise we can count on!
It’s the word Isaiah saw:
One day coming, God's own mountain
Will be highest of them all.
All the nations will be yearning
For God's teaching, and returning,
They'll find guidance in God's law.

I set my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord ‘making earth and heaven.

On that day of celebration,
All will listen to the Lord.
God will judge between the nations
Till all justice is restored.
Out of weapons made for harming
They will fashion tools for farming
And they'll put aside the sword.

I set my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord ‘making earth and heaven.

One great day, the prophet told us,
God will triumph! It is true.
Lord, we trust this word of promise
As we hear your word anew.
When we're lost among the mountains
Of the world’s ways that confound us,
Show the path that leads to you.

I set my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord ‘making earth and heaven.
