He Didn’t Lift Us Up To Let Us Down

He Didn’t Lift Us Up To Let Us Down
(1978)

By Phil Johnson

Originally recorded by the Imperials

Chorus

He didn’t bring us this far
to leave us.

He didn’t teach us to swim
to let us drown.

He didn’t make his home in us
to move away.

He didn’t lift us up
to let us down.

He didn’t lift us up
to let us down.
