Take the door panel off and first check to see if power is getting to the motor. If it is, then try banging on the motor while pressing the "up" button.
My guess is that the window motor is shot but banging on the motor might get the bushings to get better contact and your window might work for a while longer.
Also, make sure the wires are still attached to the motor because they can come off after years of use. I've seen it happen before.
