Original Lyrics: Filked Lyrics:
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 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.

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 think I glimpse 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.

When I’m below, and oh my soul, so weary;
When I’m alone, and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still, and wait here in my chamber;
Until you come and sit a while with me.

Chorus:
You raise me up, so I can stand above ground;
You raise me up, to walk just like I’m free;
I am strong, when-you’re-leaning on my shoulder;
You raise me up, to all that I can be.

There is no life, no life without its limits;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you’re here and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

Chorus:
You raise me up, so I can stand above ground;
You raise me up, to walk just like I’m free;
I am strong, when-you’re-leaning on my shoulder;
You raise me up, to all that I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand above ground;
You raise me up, to walk just like I’m free;
I am strong, when-you’re-leaning on my shoulder;
You raise me up, to all that I can be.

You raise me up, to all that I can be.
