You Raise Me Up

I love this song and this morning it brought tears to my eyes just listening to it again. How true it is for me, that a power so much greater than myself can indeed raise me up to where I can see. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

You Raise Me Up
Lyrics by Josh Groban

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.

You're very welcome, CW. I wish I could post the music also, it's just so beautiful and something that I will carry with me today.

Hugs

Thank you Bikewench, now I can listen to it as often as I want. I don't know why, but this song and music just touches my heart each time I hear it.
