When I am down and oh my soul so wear
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.

Refrain: 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 I glimpse eternity.

Refrain: 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.
