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

and 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

and 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

you raise me up to more than i can be
