When I am down and, oh, my soul so weary, When troubles come and my heart burdened be, Then I am still and waiting 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. There is no life, no life without His wonder, Each restless heart beats so imperfectly. But when you come and I am filled with wonder, Sometimes I think I claim 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, oh, 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. When I am down, you raise me up.
