“You Raise Me Up” is an incredible song written by Josh Groban, published in 2001. It’s about the scary stuff that life throws at you and the support that can be there during those times.
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
Our God’s support is there even when our faith falters. Peter didn’t die from drowning.
When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?
Give it some thought.
