You Raise Me Up Lyrics

When I am down and oh my soul so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
And I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit a while with meYou 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 beThere 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 eternityYou 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 beAnd I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with meYou 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 beYou 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
