I lift up my eyes to the hills.

From where does my help come?

My help comes from the LORD,

who made heavens and earth.

                   Psalm 121. 1-2

(When the tough gets going,

the tough are already

         relying on His strength.

God never promised

         a paved highway,

but "Do not be afraid.

       I am with you."

He leads us in ways

      to draw closer to Him.

How in the world can we

      keep going on the steep parts?

Not on our own.

God provides His strength.

    Take one step

        and then another rises up.

This hill workout

   is not defeating us,

   but equipping us

for a panoramic view.)

O LORD.

This place is hard.

This hill is steep.

Draw our eyes to You.

Bring Your glory to it.

Help us to not miss

    Your wonders along the way.

And even in the struggle,

   empower us to be faithful

   in helping others

         to walk with You.

You alone

     are our help.

You are the Almighty One.
