He Looked Up Video (MV)

In the distance the prisoners could see
A crowd around a jail called Liberty Then the leader of the others smiled
And told his older brother
They're all here to guess which one is me

And Hyrum, I predict they all will think it's you
If I were God you'd be the one I'd choose
You have the stature and demeanor
Of a great religious leader
You're the one I'd give the vision to

Then the older brother told them:
I know why I wasn't chosen
If it had been me who said that prayer.
In the grove with light descending
With eyes closed and weak knees bending
I'd have kept my head bowed humbly there

But He looked up and saw a vision
He looked up and for himself he knew
He looked up and started on a mission
To show us where to look to find what's true

He looked up from darkness and despairing
He looked up with all his might
He looked up accepting that his calling
Would show us where to look to find the light

And that moment of decision
Changed the way he saw religion
Changed the way he saw the God of love
Though demanding sacrifices
When he witnesses who Christ is
Others feel their souls are changed because

He looked up when I'd have kept my head down
He looked up when I'd have been afraid
He looked up and life is not the same now
'Cause he looked up, I'm looking up today

He looked up and life is not the same now
'Cause he looked up, I'm looking up today
