Watch The Afters’ Brand New Music Video “Lift Me Up!”

Hey everyone!

I’m excited to share this new music video with you from The Afters! It’s for their song “Lift Me Up” which is one of my favorites on the record. Check it out, and let me know what you think! :)

Lift Me Up

Waiting for the sunrise
Waiting for the day
Waiting for a sign that I’m where you want me to be

You know my heart is heavy
And the hurt is deep
But when I feel like giving up,
You’re reminding me

That we all fall down sometimes.
When I hit the ground …

CHORUS:

You lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so
I’m letting go
You lift me up
When I can’t see
Your heart is all that I need
Your love carries me so I’m letting go

I know I’m not perfect
I know I make mistakes
I know that I have let You down
But You love me the same

When I’m surrounded
When I lose my way
When I’m crying out
When I have fallen down

CHORUS

I can see the dawn is breaking
I am feeling overtaken with Your love
I don’t know what I can offer
In this moment I surrender to Your love

CHORUS

From The Album “Light Up The Sky”

    Awesome song and video. So many are hurting now in so many ways. God is our only true, unfailing hope.

    Great video. It showed very real problems people are facing today, but the message in the video is evident that God will get us through the rough times. :)

    Really powerful. So many are hurting these days and somehow need to know that God's love for and value of them goes even deeper than that hurting. Thanks for some real-life illustrations of that.

    The video show us all about all the sadness around and how alone people can feel. People need to see this and know that There is a God who can give them strength in time of sorrow. Thank you for this life lesson. Really liked the song and video. Thanks for sharing.

    It really hit me hard to see the woman reading the sympathy cards. My uncle was recently killed in a tragic car accident. My aunt misses him terribly. I know she must be feeling as the woman portrayed in the video, and it hurts not being able to make it better. All we can do is keep loving her while we mourn with her. But even though it hurts so much missing him, we know he's at peace. The morning of the car crash, he told my aunt he had dreamed of his mother. He said he had rarely dreamed of her after her passing many years ago, but in the past few weeks began dreaming of her often. They would chat, then she would say, "Goodbye." But the morning of the crash, she said, "See you soon." We believe God allowed him a glimpse of heaven, and blessed us with the reassurance that we will be together as family again. "Jesus wept." - John 11:35 He weeps for us in compassion, for our sorrow and mourning, and because He understands that we don't fully know the joy that awaits us.

    The After's never disapoint with their videos about pain. They are always touching. This one is no different. I wish more artist would focus on the conditions of the heart and pain because it never become irrelevant because no matter how strong our faith is we all go through these feeling, and quite frankly I'm sick of people telling us it's wrong to feel these normal human emotions.
