Written by Dolly Parton [Intro] | D | % | % | G A D | x2 [Verse 1]
     D
In a dream I was walkin' in a beautiful field

      D                          G       A  D
I was   gathering flowers at the foot of a  hill

       D
When a   bright light descended and it spread o'er the land

      D                              G        A   D
Jesus   stood on the mountain and He held out His hand
[Verse 2]
             D
Then He came   down from the mountain, headed down to the sea

        D                                 G       A   D
And the   children strowed flowers in the path at His feet

           D
And He was   filled with compassion and the beasts from the wild

        D                              G         A   D
Came as   gentle as lambs and they all walked at His side
[Chorus]
          D
There's a calm on the water, a hush in the crowd

        F#                             G
There's peace in the valley, there's a stillness about

          D            G                 F#         Bm
There's a light in the darkness, there's joy in His love

             D           G               Bm   A   D
Ain't that a   wonderful feelin', let us lift Him up
[Instrumental] | D | % | % | G A D | x2 [Verse 3]
        D
Then He   suddenly vanished from the crowd down below

      D                             G   A   D
He ap---peared on the mountain in a radiant glow

             D
He said your   questions are many but the answer is love

          D                    G  A      D
I'll draw all men unto me if I be lifted up
[Chorus]
          D
There's a calm on the water, a hush in the crowd

        F#                             G
There's peace in the valley, there's a stillness about

          D            G                 F#         Bm
There's a light in the darkness, there's joy in His love

         D          G               Bm   A   D
There is   life everlastin', let us lift Him up
[Bridge]
           D
He said if I (He said if I) be lifted up (be lifted up)

           G    A      D
He said if I be lifted up   (what did he say?)

           D
He said if I (He said if I) be lifted up (be lifted up)

He said if I (He said if I) be lifted up (be lifted up)

       Ab   Bb     Eb

[Chorus]
          Eb
There's a calm on the water, a hush in the crowd

        Ab           Bb                Eb
There's peace in the valley, there's a stillness about

          Eb

It's a   wonderful feelin', lift Him up

           Eb
He said if I (He said if I) be lifted up (be lifted up)

           Eb
He said if I (He said if I) be lifted up (be lifted up)

           Ab   Bb     Eb
He said if I be lifted up   (be lifted up)

           Eb
He said if I (He said if I) be lifted up (be lifted up)

           Ab   Bb     Eb
He said if I be lifted up   (be lifted up)
