when i am down and oh my soul so weary when troubles come and my heart burdened be then i am here and sing here in the silence until you come and sit awhile with me you raise me up till 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 precious heart beats so imperfectly but when you come and i am filled with wonder sometimes i think i see eternity you raise me up till 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 raise me up till 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 thank you
