You raise me up

You raise me up

Have you heard the song "You raise me up"? It's such a lovely song - reminding us that when we are down, God is always there to lift us up. I guess listening to it lifted my spirit a great deal. If you happen to be down in spirit or there's something bothering you, may you take courage from the words of the song ...

You raise me up (By Brendan Graham and Rolf Lovland)

Verse 1

When I am down and o 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

Chorus

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

You raise me up to more than I can be

Verse 2

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

(From Sheila Walsh's album "You raise me up")

What more need I say? God's inspiration upon the writer of the song speaks for itself already.
