Christ Is My Strength

I lift my head towards heaven
The sun reminds me of Christ
Shining down on my life 
The one who paid the price 

He gives me the strength 
To go on each day
No matter where I am
Or where I go to stay

He lifts me from the mired clay
Sets me on solid ground 
Where I should stay 

Puts within my heart
A happy melody, too
Sing it through the day
For that helps me through
