You Raise Me Up - sung by Linda Thompson

This is a song that really gave me courage when I was going through many trials in my life. The first time I heard this song I knew it was my song. I enjoy singing it with my whole heart. I hope it will be an encouragement to others.

Thank you. I'm glad that you enjoyed it. Our family is happy and in good health. I'm grateful to God for His blessings.

I love this song by almost anyone who does it.. I haven't read back, so you've probably already been told you were singing this over some wrong chords in a couple places, but you have a very instinctive and pretty voice... And, that makes this still, a good listen... kudo's...

[songbird60]

Actually, I haven't heard that. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for letting me know.

I am watching this from Japan. I like how you play the guitar very much.

Are you putting a plastic nail on your thumb?

[songbird60]

Thank you. I don't think that I had a plastic nail that day. It was my natural nail. I do get nails put on if I break one but they don't sound as nice as natural nails.

You are a very gifted guitar player and singer.May GOD continue to bless you as you bless others.Jesus loves you!

[songbird60]

Thank you. Praise God! I needed a lift.

Just over 2 years ago i found out I had lymphatic cancer (I thought it was just a cough and a funny feeling when I swallowed!) Anyway, I beat it, and I'm still here, but when I thought I wasn't going to see Christmas, I decided my funeral song would be Linda Thompson singing 'The Dimming of the Day'. That song still makes me cry, but in a good way now, and makes me so, so glad I'm still here. God bless you and thank you.

@nylawyer55 Actually innocent people suffer due to the fact that some people among us are not innocent. It takes God to tell us that even if we are innocent, we will suffer greatly. And that's the world order. Unfortunately many innocent souls didn't live long enough to witness the turning of the tide. If you must hate, don't hate God who is trying to intervene on behalf of the innocent. Please hate the right 'thing'.

@crofty1984 listen you god loving asshole, "god" is NOTHING... it is a figment of powerful peoples' imagination thousands of years ago to control the masses. I guess you are one of the asses, I mean, masses. You know what Jesus' last words were??? "Ouch, that nail hurts!!!", and "Stop the fucking banging!!! You are giving me a headache!!!" God... give me a fucking break. Go worship to the air. Worship to your cock; at least you can feel it; I am not sure if you can see it if you a fat turd.

@nylawyer55 Really? How old are you, twelve? You don't dig on religion, OK we get it. Nor do I as a matter of fact but I wonder what kind of perverse pleasure you get from barging into a conversation which is primarily about music, where people are getting along quite nicely and trying to force your opinion on people?

None of these people were coming into your life and upsetting you, so what's your game?

@nylawyer55 Lighten up, man. God - no God? This thing is about the music - how it sounds. How did you react to Mr Harrison's Bangla Desh stuff in the 70s? Were you uneasy about the intrusion of politics into pop music? I was, but I still liked the music he spun from it. So, Lawyer Man, just pour yourself a Californian Chardonnay, lay down on your big leather Manhattan chaise longue and e-n-j-o-y the music, man. BTW, Pinocchio got to the couch first while you were battlling through the metro.

[nylawyer55]

PATHETIC. FUCK GOD. WAKE UP PEOPLE... LET'S JUST BELIEVE IN PINNOCHIO INSTEAD... BOTH ARE FAIRY TALES, BUT AT LEAST PINNOCHIO DOES NOT BELIEVE IN PUNISHING INNOCENT PEOPLE FOR BEING HUMAN. FUCK RELIGION; WHAT A FARCE.

[kgroove11]

[eeyyee123]
