Koria's Beloved's Journal: You Raise Me Up

You have made me so much more than I was. From the bottom of my heart... Thank you.

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... To more than I can be.

All my love to you, Koria.

Wow, that was so sweet that reading it just made me diabetic.

Disclaimer: The above statement was meant to be a harmless wisecrack and was entirely good natured and meant to bring a smile if not a chuckle into your life. No offense at all was intended, if any offense was taken then I humbly apologize. I'm only including this disclaimer because you don't know me or my sense of humor yet. I do, however, reserve the right to make fun of you in the future at some unforeseen time for listening to Josh Groban.

You ain't seen nothin' yet, bub. :-) Better get the super economy size of insulin.

No offense taken, of course.

I've read a bunch of back journal entries for the people that I have put on my friends list. So I have an inkling of your sense of humor, your politics, and whatnot.

The Josh Groban thing? :-) I'll stand up for my taste any time. Despite your presumed-reason-for-deleting-that-meme-journal-en t ry. ;-)

I deleted it because I felt it was waaaaaay too self serving... I read back through it, and thought "Dear Lord this makes me sound like a Narcissist". Note to self: Use Preview Button!

I caught your response just in time - I have to head for the airport in about 10 minutes.

No, Beloved....

It was written by Brendan Graham and Rolf Lovland, not Josh Groban. :p

Corrected.

Thanks for the information. I thought that it sounded like something from Secret Garden.
