My faith looks up! Comp; by Lowell Mason, (1792-1872). Played by Rev. Winfred L. Nartey-Graham

“My Faith Looks Up to Thee” is one of the most beloved hymns of Christian devotion. The tune, composed by Lowell Mason, is traditionally known as Olivet. Mason was a pioneering American church musician, often called the “Father of American Church Music,” who helped establish congregational singing and music education in the United States during the 19th century. The hymn itself is a deeply personal prayer of trust in Christ. Its words express surrender, reliance on divine grace, and hope in God’s sustaining presence through life’s trials. The melody’s simplicity and gentle strength beautifully support the text’s heartfelt appeal, making it especially suitable for quiet reflection and worship. In this organ rendition, Rev. Winfred L. Nartey-Graham interprets the hymn with reverence and expressive phrasing, drawing out its tender devotional character. The performance highlights the hymn’s central message — a soul lifting its eyes in faith toward the Saviour. Lyrics 🎶 1. My faith looks up to You You Lamb of Calvary, Saviour divine: Now hear me while I pray; Take all my guilt away; O let me from this day Be wholly Yours 2. May Your rich grace impart Strength to my fainting heart, My zeal inspire. As You has died for me, O may my love to You Pure, warm, and changeless be, A living fire. 3. While life’s dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be You my guide; Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrow’s tears away, Nor let me ever stray From You aside. 4. When ends life’s transient dream, When death’s cold sullen stream Shall o’er me roll, Bless Saviour, then in love, Fear and distrust remove; O bear me safe above, A ransomed soul. Beautifully played by Rev Winfred Lomotey Nartey-Graham.
