This has been one of my favorite songs for years. I contacted Rick back in 2002 about collaborating, partly because I had sung this song so many times. The recording is from Rick's Praise Classics 2 CD. - Elton, September 12, 2009

Lyrics

Lord, I lift Your name on high.
Lord, I love to sing Your praises.
I'm so glad You're in my life;
I'm so glad You came to save us.

You came from Heaven to earth
To show the way.
From the Earth to the cross,
My debt to pay.
From the cross to the grave,
From the grave to the sky;
Lord, I lift Your name on high.

Lord, I lift Your name on high.
Lord, I love to sing Your praises.
I'm so glad You're in my life;
I'm so glad You came to save us.

You came from Heaven to earth
To show the way.
From the Earth to the cross,
My debt to pay.
From the cross to the grave,
From the grave to the sky;
Lord, I lift Your name on high.

You came from Heaven to earth
To show the way.
From the Earth to the cross,
My debt to pay.
From the cross to the grave,
From the grave to the sky;
Lord, I lift Your name on high.

You came from Heaven to earth
To show the way.
From the Earth to the cross,
My debt to pay.
From the cross to the grave,
From the grave to the sky;
Lord, I lift Your name on high.

However, visibility does not equal safety. According to the Human Rights Campaign, 2023 and 2024 saw record numbers of fatal violence against trans people, predominantly Black and Latina trans women. Meanwhile, state legislatures in the US and UK have passed record numbers of bills restricting trans healthcare, bathroom access, and participation in sports.

Coined by Time magazine in 2014 when featuring actress Laverne Cox on its cover, this era marked a surge in mainstream visibility and awareness.

| Instead of… | Use… | |-------------|------| | “Transgenders” or “a transgender” | “Transgender people” or “a transgender person” (adjective, not noun) | | “Sex change” | “Transition” or “gender confirmation” | | “Born a man/woman” | “Assigned male/female at birth” | | “Preferred pronouns” | “Pronouns” (they aren’t a preference) | | “Deadname” (the name a trans person no longer uses) | “Chosen name” or “current name” |

Furthermore, the community has led the shift toward gender-affirming language in mainstream society. The widespread introduction of sharing pronouns (he/him, she/her, they/them), the use of honorifics like "Mx.", and the adoption of gender-neutral terms like "sibling" or "folks" stem directly from transgender advocacy for validation and visibility. Contemporary Challenges and Activism

Today, Aisha continues to create and inspire, using her art to uplift and empower others. Her story is a testament to the power of self-expression and the importance of representation in the media.

Elements of ballroom—including runway walks, specific slang, and dance styles—have been heavily adopted by mainstream pop music, fashion, and reality television. Diverse Identities Within the Acronym

There is a phrase you might hear occasionally, sometimes in frustration, sometimes in confusion: “Why is the ‘T’ in LGBTQ+? What does being transgender have to do with sexuality?”

Some individuals have found parallels between African concepts of communal living and the traditional Indian gharanas (households), creating a unique cross-cultural support system. Moving Toward Inclusion

For most of history, if you were a trans person in a small town, where did you go? The same big city gay bars that welcomed the lesbian and the drag queen. The same community centers. The same support groups. We built houses of worship out of nightclubs and activist basements. To separate now would be to erase that mutual history of building infrastructure from nothing.

If you are a cisgender (non-trans) LGB person reading this, what does true solidarity look like?
