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, 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.
