Selah - You Raise Me Up - Lyrics

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 raise me up to more than I can be.

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.

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 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.

John 14:18 (New International Version)
18I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

The world without You Lord would be comfortless indeed. Please fill us with Your love now that You are in our hearts. I can not imagine not having the hope of Your love to guide us. When we face trials that seem to separate us from You, I pray that we will trust that if we draw close to You, You will raise us up and become our comforter. When life seems the darkest please come to us brining Your peace. No one can comfort like You, Father God.

My Prayer: Father God, please reach down deep into our soul today so that we may feel Your presence and the Holy Spirit’s consolation. Amen
