You Raise Me Up
 

(Please click on the note to start the music)
 

When I am down
 

and oh, my soul’s 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 a while with me.

~

There is no life, no life without its hunger.
 

Each restless heart beats so imperfectly.
 

But when you shine  ¹
 

and I am filled with wonder, ²
 

sometimes I think I glimpse eternity. ³
 

~
 

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 more than I can be.
 

~
 

When joy is gone
 

and all my heart is sadness
 

When falls
 

and spills
 

replace

my youthful glee
 

Then you appear
 

and lift my spirits calmly
 

Joy
 

and goodness
 

flow from you
 

to 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.

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.

SWIFTER, HIGHER, STRONGER
