You raised me up


The song I would like to share this week is "You raised me up"
My friend extremely loves this song who set this as her ringtone from secondary school time until today
We always stand on others' foot in order to stand still
People raised us up in order to help us achieving our dream
However, sometimes we tend to neglect the one who raised us up after we success
We forgot their giving after we received all achievement
Our life, are just all about supporting each other
We lend our hand and leg to support others and at the same time we were stepping on others' leg and hand, as well as head to climb up and up
Some started to abandon the one one supported due to their incapable or low progress
However do you realise that you have invisibly lowered one's progress while you were standing on one's shoulder
Put aside when if your big project needs tremendous numbers of people to help you to achieve
See, you wished to build a mega building
You need workers. You got money from the consumers, you asked money from the citizen
You are standing on the people's head in order to build your pride
However when the people are down, do you borrow your shoulder for them to rest and stand still
At the end you lost the support from the people
Still, you can stand straight?
When you wish to hold an event you need your crew to help throwing it a success
Can you do it yourself without a single hand, leg, shoulder or even head?
Look, there are always a hand on hand world
Or a leg on shoulder society
There are always someone to hold you to support
Appreciate the one who support you
And support the one who were behind you
Pull them and make them stand still than others


Below is the lyric of the song~
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.
