    "Take Me High” – A Worship Anthem of Strength, Surrender, and Soaring Faith Inspired by Isaiah 40:31, “Take Me High” is more than a song—it’s a heartfelt prayer for those feeling overwhelmed, weary, or stuck in survival mode. With lyrics that echo the cry, “Lord, lift me above the chaos,” this worship anthem reminds us that God renews our strength when we wait on Him. When life feels heavy and you’re running on empty, “Take Me High” calls you to rise—not in your own power, but by the strength of the One who never fails. It speaks to the tired Wife, Mom, and ministry worship leader pouring out without refilling, and the woman quietly battling storms behind the scenes.
