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 rise 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 rise me up

To more than I can be
