Lirik Lagu You Raise Me Up - Josh Groban

Saya tertarik dengan lagu ini semasa menyaksikan persembahan ulangan Akademi Fantasia malam tadi. Maklum sajalah, dahulu, manalah saya ada masa untuk menonton Akademi Fantasia. Kalau ada pun sekejap sahaja, iaitu semasa sedang makan malam di kafe. Dahulu saya lebih fokus kepada tugasan dan tanggungjawab harian saya, dan tidak dapat menonton rancangan Akademi Fantasia sehingga habis. Malam tadi saya sempat menonton Akademi Fantasia Musim Ke-6 sehingga habis. Lagu "You Raise Me Up" berjaya mencuri perhatian saya. Bagi saya, lagu ini cukup berkuasa dari segi melodi dan liriknya. Saya mencari-cari lagu ini di dalam internet dan saya berjaya menemuinya. Termyata lagu yang menarik selera pendengaran saya ini mempunyai sejarah kegemilangannya yang tersendiri. Barangkali, lagu "You Raise Me Up" ini merupakan salah sebuah lagu inspirasi yang patut ada di dalam koleksi lagu-lagu terbaik pilihan peribadi. Di sini saya turut menyediakan lirik lagu You Raise Me Up dan sedutan video klip YouTube lagu You Raise Me Up nyanyian Josh Groban.

"You Raise Me Up" is a popular song in the inspirational mould. The music was written by Secret Garden's Rolf Løvland and the lyrics by Brendan Graham. The song has now been covered more than 125 times

Josh Groban - You Raise Me Up Lyric

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.

The song has also been released by Westlife, Ronan Tynan, Sissel Kyrkjebø, Russell Watson, Selah, Celtic Woman, Tommy Fleming, Michael Ball, and the Celtic Tenors with Samantha Mumba, this time with an R&B flow to it. Åsa Jinder has written lyrics in Swedish, "Rör vid min själ", and that version has been recorded by Sanna Nielsen. The song was also recorded by Daniel Beck, an LDS musician. The song was used for EFY's 2007 CD ~Power in Purity." The most recent recording is a Spanish version by Il Divo, using Westlife's instrumentation and entitled "Por Ti Seré".
