Once In A Red Moon

you raise me up

lyrics by brendan graham

music by rolf lovland

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

(music)

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;

and 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
