You Raise Me Up
Recorded by Daniel O'Donnell
Written by Brendan Graham and Rolf Lovland

C                  F             C
When I am down and oh my soul so weary
                       F        G7
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
          F                          C
Then I am still and wait here in the silence
F         C        G7              C
Until You come and sit awhile with me

             Am    F              C
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains
G7           Am    F              C   G7
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
     C           F            C
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
F            C     G7              C
You raise me up to more than I can be

                    F                C
There is no life no life without its hunger
                          F           G7
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly
             F                         C
But when You come and I am filled with wonder
F           C       G7            C
Sometimes I think I glimpse eternity

             Am    F              C
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains
G7           Am    F              C   G7
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
     C           F            C
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
F            C     G7              C
You raise me up to more than I can be

F            C     G7              C
You raise me up to more than I can be
