You Raise Me Up by Selah

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.

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.

I am STANDING on His shoulders today.....arms in the air, hands up, with praise and gratitude for what He has already done and what He is currently doing that has yet to be revealed. I have seen His glory, and its an amazing place to be. I will not fear, for He has overcome the World. Thank you Lord that you only have plans to prosper me and not harm me. I will pass this test Lord, I will pass.

To all my adoption and blogging friends, you have been an amazing support system. Thank you for your constant encouragement and thoughtful words and postings. So many wonderful gifts in adoption, and the friendships made in unimaginable places has been one of them. I hope to have the opportunity to meet everyone of you someday.

Blessings and prayers to you all.
