200 Kids Sing A Cappella Style | You Raise Me Up by Josh Groban

The most inspiring cover of You Raise Me Up you've ever seen!
This song is on all the digital platforms! Grab yours today!

I am at a complete loss after seeing what happened last night in new zealand. I cannot unsee the live video that I accidentally stumbled upon.... I will never comprehend the hate and anger in these horrendous acts of violence. I will never accept them, We are all humans. We are all equal....Only light and love belongs here. Sitting here with tears streaming down my face watching these young kids singing with all their hearts brings me hope for the future. I have two young children... and I need to believe that they will be safe, that they will be brought into a world that believes in love and peace and equality. I vow to you, and the world that I will live my life promoting love and goodness and bring as much light into this world that I possibly can... for my family, for the hollensfamily, for the world... why would there be any other reason to be alive? Thanks for listening. Love you all. - P

I hope Josh Groban likes it ;)

LYRICS:

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
#YouRaiseMeUp, 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

One of the reasons I did this song was because of the beautiful version the Celtic Woman did of You Raise Me Up. The biggest reason however, is because of you and your requests keep those coming down below.

Human voice, the most complicated and perfect musical instrument.

[titusmaximus]

The human voice is the most versatile musical instrument. With 200 voices what an orchestra you had there.

[lotrnerd]

Needed this after hearing bout New Zealand. Good job. Josh would be proud.

[dumboy]

I've missed the large chorus a capellas lately.

Glad they're back. These songs have such power in them.

<3

Dear God, my heart is so full right now.... bless all of you and TY!!!

[MusicGodAndMyLaptop]

”You look your best when you unlock the potential of others.” Thank you Peter for illustrating this. This might be your best video ever.

[saveryplays]

As a Christian, this was powerful and full of spirit and that is something that I dearly love. God bless!

You should do Deliver Us and Plagues from Prince of Egypt.

I’m going to sing this to my mom on her 50th birthday, she’s helped me with my struggles. My autism, anxiety, ADHD, depression. This song is her anthem, and I wouldn’t be here today if she wasn’t in my life. This song tells her story of how she raised ME up, and I can’t thank her enough

[DonYutuc]

Who's watching in 2023? 200 angelic voices are singing in the heavens. Our steps are ordered by the Lord God Almighty. Today, Divine algorithms brought us watching this. Amazing God we serve 🙌 🙏

[saarthakpanda]

Seeing you from 2012, when I was a kid, proud of you man. Keep singing and love you all.

[laryssag.]

Hopefully this song can reach everyone around the world.

Thoughts are prayers go out to the victims of the appalling tragedy in New Zealand. So many bright and beautiful souls have been taken from us. It gives me comfort to know the world is mourning as one, and that for every one of these monsters there are a million of us. The New Zealand synagogues are closed for shabbat in the first time in that nations history in solidarity with the victims. God bless🇺🇸❤️🇳🇿

[livingsatisfied]

The pure emotion that is shown. You dont see that often. Thia is amazing

[cg]

This blows me away . It is one of my favorite songs and for me it describes my relationship with God, trusting him, praying, and trusting he knows what is best. Great job Peter your voice is incredible and the way the kids sang was amazing!

[HartDoug]

There are few songs or singers that can ‘bring me to tears’ but this song and this... no, these singers have done precisely that! This is an amazingly beautiful rendition of an amazingly beautiful song!

[corinnec.]

“Raise me up” is such a beautiful song already and it’s lyrics make me cry; pair it w/ the angelic voices of 200 kids and Peter caused me to unleash a flood of tears. My husband doesn’t get why i love songs that make me cry.

[georgeannrutkowski]

During the hardships being suffered by too many of us across the globe....this is a few minutes of peace. God bless us everyone 🙏
