Verso L’Alto!
A Prayer on the Ascension of Our Lord
Mt Rainier
Raise me up
Ascendant Lord
Raise me to the heights!
Lift me over the glittering mountaintops
Past where the eagle flies.
Raise me up
Ascendant Lord
Raise me through the clouds!
Pull me through this grey gloomy roof
I promise I won’t look down.
Raise them up
Ascendant Lord
Raise them from the grave!
Lift up my fallen family, Lord
Engulf them with your grace.
Raise us up
Ascendant Lord
Raise us to the skies!
Raise us through the onyx canvas
Speckled with silver lights.
Raise us up
Ascendant Lord
Into your Risen arms!
Pull us, lift us, raise us, Lord!
Into your Sacred Heart!
