Lyrics

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 is from Secret Garden from Norway and Brendan Graham from Ireland. They are the ones who should be credited.

Also big creds to the young lad.

@joose89 Thank you for raising this point, I have amended the video description to give the appropriate credits.

So what if he loses the Soprano! He'll have an excellent Tenor! SO BE IT!

I take it that in the UK, a voice "breaks" at a certain age? in the US, we say it "changes".

Once he grows some he will sound like a frog

[purplemonkey689]

Wonderful, inspirational, raw, innocent, pure talent.

Thank you Liam. A pleasure.

[lawerancerivera]

guys think about it. if he sang that an octave lower it wouldn't sound as awesome... The reason he's so praised is because of his high range.

[Gia5MillionGreenJobs]
