Lift up your head Lyrics

Lift up your head, you healthy boy!

If one hope or two were broken

A new one flashes in your eye

Soon it gains shine from on high

Lift lift - lift up your head

Lift up your head and look around

Something is there that cries: come!

Something with a thousand tongues

As if joy sings

Lift lift - lift up your head

Lift up your head! for within yourself

Also a vast vault is blue

Where harps ring

Rejoice, tune and swing

Lift lift - lift up your head

Lift up your head and sing it out

You never curb the shoots of spring!

Where there are fermenting forces

It shoots the following year

Lift lift - lift up your head

Lift up your head and take your baptism

From on high, the radiant hope

Which, over the world

And in every spark of life trembles

Lift lift - lift up your head

Uuuuhuuuuu
