You Raise Me Up
Lisa Mairead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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, 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 "You Raise Me Up" by Lisa Mairead has become a universal anthem about hope and inspiration – a call to all of us to reach for the best that is within us. The lyrics of the song remind us that when we're feeling down, we need someone to lift us up to conquer our fears and to find strength to face our challenges. The opening verses of the song reveal a sense of hopelessness, with the words "When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary, when troubles come and my heart burdened be." The singer acknowledges that she cannot summon the strength to rise above her troubles alone, but instead turns to a higher force for help. She declares "Then, I am still and wait here in the silence, until you come and sit awhile with me."
The subsequent verses of the song make it clear that this higher power comes in the form of a mentor, who helps us to discover our potential, beyond the limits we set for ourselves. The lyrics "You raise me up to more than I can be" signify that this support helps us to achieve greater heights than we could have envisioned. The second verse is a reminder that all of us have imperfections and at times feel dissatisfied with our lives. However, when we are in the presence of someone that inspires us, we can sometimes glimpse the infinite possibilities of life.
Overall, the song is a declaration of the power of encouragement and inspiration. A message that reminds us to never give up hope and that we can always reach new heights in life if we allow ourselves to be raised up by the people we love and admire.
