You raise me up

I remembered listening this song when I was in junior high school. Our music teacher played this song and told us this was his favorite song. That was the first time I heard the song.
You raise me up.

Why do I recall the memory? It is because our department is going to chorus this song in the contest this Wednesday.

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.

You raise me up... to more than I can be.

We have practiced this song many times recently. I love the warm song very much, too. Everytime I listen to you raise me up, the people who really raise me up come to my mind. My friends and my family, they always give me strength and let me be strong when I encounter challenges. I love them and appreciate them with all my heart. They raise me up...to more than I can be.
