When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary When troubles come and my heart burdened be When 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 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 feel like man's 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
