The world is looking for a revelation
We're always under their investigation
They look at us to hear what we got to say
They can't see Jesus when we stand in the wayThey don't need no more elevated speeches
We're keeping Jesus just beyond their reaches
Can't see the forest for all of the trees
They won't see Jesus till we fall on our kneesLift Him up, higher and higher
Lift Him up, set the world on fire
It doesn't take much theology
Just lift Him up, so the world can seeLift Him up, tell the gospel story
Lift Him up, let them see His glory
It doesn't take any Bible degree
Just lift Him up, so the world can seeSometimes they just can't see beyond the haze
Or find their way through the religious maze
Just like Zacchaeus, they're trying to see
They got to somehow see beyond you and meLift Him up, higher and higher
Lift Him up, set the world on fire
It doesn't take much theology
Just lift Him up, so the world can seeLift Him up, tell the gospel story
Lift Him up, let them see His glory
It doesn't take any Bible degree
Just lift Him up, so the world can seeOh, how the world needs to see him
So they can believe Him
Oh, how can we ever hide Him
As if we had denied HimOh, how could He ever draw them
If they never saw Him
Oh, how can they see His glory
Without you and meLift Him up, higher and higher
Lift Him up, set the world on fire
It doesn't take much theology
Just lift Him up, so the world can seeLift Him up, tell the gospel story
Lift Him up, left them see His glory
It doesn't take any Bible degree
