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 a while 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 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 see my 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 Oh, you raise me up to more than I can be You raise me up to more than I can be You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
