Thank you all so much for sharing your time and talent to honor our beloved Ryan Suzuki who was a committed member of our choir for many years. Here you will find the practice materials for brushing up on “You Raise Me Up” which we will sing on Saturday morning. A special thank you to Mario Garcia who created these practice tracks and who will accompany us on his guitar on Saturday. I am in awe of your spirit, kindness, generosity and pulling together in the past couple of days. I can already feel the love that we will pour out to Ryan and his family on Saturday..
With all my love and gratitude,
Miss Marleena
You Raise Me Up - Lyrics
1st Verse - Solo:
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
Chorus - Choir:
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
2nd Verse - Choir:
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.
Chorus - Choir:
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
Chorus - Choir:
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
Solo:
You raise me up to more than I can be
