Psalm 121:1 I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? 2 My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

This is a remarkably beautiful song by Whitney Houston. Whitney’s own personal struggles have been well documented in the media, but here she points us all to the One who does not just have the answer; He actually IS the answer. This song is a cry from the heart. Sometimes God brings us to the end of ourselves so that we can’t? turn anywhere else but to Him, and when we do, we find that He is all we ever needed.

As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
I’m lost without a cause
After giving it my all

Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I’ve been through
Who on earth can I turn to?

Chorus:
I look to you,
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you,
I look to you
And when melodies are gone In you I hear a song
I look to you

Have to lose my breath
There’s no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door

And every road that I’ve taken
Led to my regret
And I don’t know if I’m go’nna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head

Chorus

My levees are broken
My walls are coming down on me
My rain is falling
Defeat is calling
I need you to set me free
Take me far away from the battle
I need you
Shine on me!

Chorus

… and what do we cling to when no earthly remedy is in sight?

Let Andrae Crouch remind us of the answer one more time…

“through it all, through it all, I’ve learned to trust in Jesus, I’ve learned to trust in God. Through it all, through it all, I’ve learned to depend upon His word.”
