When I am down
and oh my soul's 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 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 its hunger
Each restless heart
beats so imperfectly
But when You come
and I am filled with wonder
Sometimes I think
I glimpse eternity
