244                            You raise me up

S + A              1.        When I am down and oh, my soul’s so weary.

mannen                    When troubles come       and my heart burdened be.

Allen                          Then I am still and wait here in the silence

until you come

and sit a while with me.

Refr    You raise me up so I can stand on mountains.

You raise me up     to walk on stormy seas.

Mannen                   I am strong

S + A                          Strong

Allen                          when I am on your shoulders

You raise me up

to more than I can be.

S + A              2.        There is no life, no life whithout its hunger.

Mannen                   Each restless heart beats so imperfectly

Allen                          But when you come and I am filled with wonder

sometimes I think

I glimpse eternity.

2x              Refr    You raise me up so I can stand on mountains.

You raise me up     to walk on stormy seas.

Mannen                   I am strong

S + A                          Strong

Allen                          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.
