May Christ lift thee up also has a meaning beyond mortality. Through the atonement of Jesus Christ, righteous men and women will be “lifted up” to meet the Savior at his glorious second coming (see D&C 45:45; D&C 88:96-97) and are “lifted up” by Jesus to an inheritance of exaltation and eternal life (see 3 Nephi 27:13-21; Mosiah 23:22; Alma 13:29; D&C 5:35; D&C 9:14; D&C 52:43-44).
