You Raise Me Up

when i am down and, oh my soul, so weary;

when troubles come and my heart burdened be;

then, i am still and wait here in the silence,

until you come and sit awhile with me.

you raise me up, so i can stand on mountains;

you raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;

i am strong, when i am on your shoulders;

you raise me up… to more than i can be.

you raise me up, so i can stand on mountains;

you raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;

i am strong, when i am on your shoulders;

you raise me up… to more than i can be.

there is no life no life without its hunger;

each restless heart beats so imperfectly;

but when you come and i am filled with wonder,

sometimes, i think i glimpse eternity.

you raise me up, so i can stand on mountains;

you raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;

i am strong, when i am on your shoulders;

you raise me up… to more than i can be.

you raise me up, to more than i can be.
