Text (from Psalm 121:1, 3 )
Lift thine eyes, O lift thine eyes to the mountains, whence cometh help.
Thy help cometh from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
He hath said thy foot shall not be moved.
Thy Keeper will never slumber.
Lift thine eyes, O lift thine eyes to the mountains, whence cometh help.
From Mendelssohn's 1846 oratorio Elijah.

I have loved this song since I was 16 years old. The choir I was in typically sang SATB but one year we sang this piece without the men. This is one of my favorite Biblical texts and the music only draws me closer to it. Thank you for providing the sheet music because it’s fun to see my part along with the others.

Wow! This song reminds me of the BEST MUSIC TEACHER IN THE WORLD, Miss Janice Hobday. She taught us at Gayaza High School. Served with Grace. One of the most loving person I know. Wow! Good memories!
