@@aleysha4766 many belong into all kind of religious cults yet serving the one and the same; BAAL, but ONLY CHRISTIANS - new creatures in CHRIST shall be in heaven. There is choosing based on free will, GOD OR MAMMON? Who are we? - old wicked sinners in BAAL or born again - new creatures in CHRIST?
I almost cry whenever I hear this song, it feels like God is with me and beside me, I remember my ups and downs in life and how I cope up by praying to God. My faith to Him will not fade away until my last breath, Thank you God
Growing up, my grandma would play this all the time during long drives when we would head up north. My grandma passed away a few years ago, it didn’t hit me first when I lost my grandma in a car accident, and then when the funeral happened, they played this song and I literally cried my eyes out because I had a flash of memories come before my eyes to losing an amazing grandma, who was there for everything and was great support. Music is very powerful. EDIT; it's been close to 9 years since I lost her, i'm thankful for her. and i'm thankful for all the love i've gotten from here. It's helped me a lot over the years. I still miss her a lot and always try to visit her grave as much as I can.
I’ve just lost my 91 y/o husband and two days later my 63y/o son died too. So many people over the years have commented that I’m such a strong woman. I know in my own strength I’m definitely not but tonight these words had new meaning to me and I now understand where my strength lies. I have always known that but I have never felt the weakness and frailty such as I am this week and these words seemed to perfectly describe my need for the Heavenly Father’s strength raising me up.
I totally understand where you are coming fyom. I am 70 back in hospital with my COPD. Feeling frail and vulnerable atm. I’m always there for others and bern told ftom anout 7 years old you are a strong person. I’ve always believed my strength comes from within g myself but I know I rely very heavenly on my Heavenly Father to support me and raise me as he sees got. I just wonder how much longer and how much more I can take. Then I see or speak or get a hug from my grand children or if so lucky my great grandchildren. And I know he lives through them too. Even if they don’t fully understand that themselves yet. I know he walks amongst us. Trying his best for humanity. But it’s not an easy world yo love and understand sometimes. But keep your faith and listen to music that feeds and soothes your found GOD BLESS YOU AND WALK BESIDES😮 YOU.
Bless your heart. That's a lot of loss. Some people think strength is clenching our fists and never letting them see you sweat. Strength for me is allowing myself to be vulnerable. That's when love can get in and help you heal. I raise my hand to God, and I ask for help. That's what he's there for.
I'm a 76 year old. I listen to Josh all the time. This song speaks to my heart. Especially when I'm going through tough times. Been a Grobanite for some years. Thanks Josh.
This video is timeless. Even though it was made twenty years ago, or sometime close to then, it brings tears to my eyes. Does anyone know who wrote the lyrics to "You Raise Me Up"?
I know we are in the last month of this year, I ask the God that all those who have suffered from mental health issues Like me, may God heal us from all suffering so that we can have a air to breathe.
I'm one of you. Mental illness is a shaming disease; to ashamed to admit the weakness and to fearful to be recognized. Praise God, Jesus died for our diseases. I'll pray for your healing too. All of us who suffer.
Whenever I am broken he pieces me together in my sadness he gives me joy and he fulfils my heart ❤with joy love and happiness Maybe I should sing this song about Him for world to awaken in His love like how I found love when I was at the lowest point in my life... 😭💪
My son Adam who is five ears old and blind has been listening to to this song since he was born. He requests this song everyday. I myself love it since he raises me up everyday. Love it.
You can use eyebright, bilberry and Lutein helps for the eyes. Put the word health benefits of eyebright for each one of those and you'll get the meaning of what it is?
I lost my beautiful wife last year, She just love this song.she was 92 yrs old and miss her so much, so I listen to this song and see her in the chair listening to Josh just sing. tears in my eyes. but I know she is listening also.An Angel in Heven......
I raised my kids by myself, I will never forget the day my Son played this song for me. Today he is married with 2 children of his own and just got a promotion at work. I cry every-time I hear this song.
YOUR LOVE YOU GAVE TO YOUR PERFECT CHILDREN WILL ALWAYS BE REPAYED A THOUSAND FOLD!!! THANK YOU FOR A PERFECT MOTHER IN SPITE OF THE ODDS OR THE SYSTEM!!!! ❤ READ A BOOK CALLED "MAID." IT WILL DIGNIFY YOU!!! AND BREAK YOUR HEART!!! LOVE YOU Mama!!!
My favorite thing about this song is that it means something different to each person who listens to it. To me it is religious and represents my relationship with God. To someone else it may describe their relationship with a family member or friend. *My point is that a lot of people can take something from this song, and I feel like it brings us together as humans.* and that is something that truly makes me happy. 😊
kayla cc Kayla, you worded that SO perfectly! Thank you! May I say to the crafty guy, your wording to Kayla, "I'm not calling you stupid but if Santa doesn't exist...God doesn't either..." And this makes perfect sense...HOW? Someone else in this conversation may need to consider at least what they said stupid, if not themself! Also, for Heaven's sake LEARN TO SPELL!!!
the crafty guy Santa has no evidence of existence, however there is undeniable proof of a creator, matter cannot give rise to information, and DNA is an information source, therefore you need ultra advanced aliens that came from aliens that came from aliens.. Infinitely, to have planted that information on earth, or you would have needed God, or gods, those are your two options.
I lost my way a long time ago and have recently tried to reconnect with and rebuild my relationship with God, this song is an amazing reminder that He will always lift us up even if we do not realize it's happening. May everyone reading this have an amazing day
God bless you man, thank you so much man. Im going through something similar, so when I read this I started crying . I can barely see what I'm typing i'm crying so much haha
Just had a service for my aunty who was 97, and this song just moved me to tears. This helped me to let go of sadness, and I knew JESUS was right there telling me it's OK. Thank you for this precious song. Your voice is so heartfelt.
Its Wednesday morning, October 3, 2018 and I am a 30 year old man in the military getting ready to marry the love of my life and she has asked me to look for a song for me and my mother to dance to. Here I am at 7:15 a.m. after my shift sobbing listening to this song thinking of all the things she has done for me. THIS is the beauty of music. Josh Groban, thank you sir.
My grandma is dying, this is her favorite artist. She was like a little girl with how much she loved Josh. She was a part of his fan club and all. I used to hate this song as she would blast it all the time. She used to tell me “now this is real music, not your hippity hop sh*t” and here I am listening to this in her honor. I love you grandma Juni.
Im sorry for your loss,this is the song i sang before both of my grandfathers's died,this was such an important song to me and thousands of ppl. R.I.P, i still remember singing this song at the church after my grandfather's (my mom's dad) funeral Also me singing this to my other grandfather (my dad's dad) while he was in bed before he died a few months after my mom's dad died, its hard to have both of your grandfather's die on both side of the family..
I am listening on November 4, 2024. The one year anniversary of my husband's passing. It hurts more today because I think I was numb when he passed. I love you Mark more than you will ever know, honey Bunny ❤
I just lost my dad this morning, and I needed this song. He made me who I am. Update: Wow. I am humbled by the love and support. My heart goes out to all of you that have also lost a loved one. My dad lives on in the memories, but I miss his jokes, his laugh, his advise, hearing him say "Love you, Buckwheat" etc..
It's Easter weekend..I am not Christian but I went to a Catholic school named after St.Patrick for 12 years...I needed to hear something that is a reminder of the solemnity of Lent and it's joyous conclusion. Josh Groban comes through..thank you dear Mr.Groban. A blessed Easter to all.
He is Indeed amazing, just can't stop listening to his songs, you seem to like his music alot, I can tell from your comment, he will be so glad to know that people are out there who cares and appreciate him so dearly....by the way nice meeting you on here, I hope you are having a wonderful time out there ???
@@peteronward5410 Thank you ..I am doing better than other people in India right now..it's going to take some time for the Corona situation to turn around.. hearing about a lot of tragedy.We locked down for one year for nothing good, because only now we are facing the brunt of the storm.

I represent the very best harmonica player in the WHOLE Universe .... My Jesus "The master player of all Harmonicas, BUT "the East:Top Harmonicas" ....I repeat.... BUT "the East:Top Harmonicas" "IS" the very best harmonica in the whole world! (I don't play the Blues style of playing the harmonica .... because .... every blues player sounds the very same, very noisy noisey to my ears .... I love pure music I can enjoy alone with everyone that has a mind to think. Like Republican that vote for Trump!!!!!!!
Not for me. Screw that bastard for putting half the worlds population in misery. Why do hungry children serve a purpose? Suffering people all around the world and you're claiming that he's gracious? I don't know if he's real or not but if it's all true, he's a very cruel man or woman and not one that I admire.
Not for me. Screw that bastard for putting half the worlds population in misery. What is the purpose of starving children? If god is real, I don't admire him or her.
This song brought me through raising 3 children alone, caring for Mom with Alzheimers and working 13 days on, one day off for 7 years. One dreary , early dark winter's day, I was driving, feeling I couldn't go on any longer with my burdens when this song came on the car radio. All of a sudden tears were blinding my drive, so I pulled over and cried the cry of a lifetime. This song reminded me I did not have to walk alone anymore. I'll be forever grateful this song came at such a time. Thank you, God.... and Josh Groban.
@joshgroban673 I have been a fan since early 2000's. Since, Mom has passed, the children are married, with their own. Today, I am retired, enjoying my family and Grandchildren. Thank you for your comment and the beautiful song that gave me faith to carry on.
Aloha to you LInda....all the way from the Islands of Aloha Hawaii USA. Mahalo for sharing your story with us! You are a true inspiration that it can be done through Perseverance. WE all at some point have tough moments, tough experience, but we must learn to rise above it all. Once again, I loved reading your message as I listen to this song, this early morning here on the beautiful Island of O'ahu-Hawaii USA. Have an amazing retirement and if you have never been to the Islands of Aloha, do visit. It is one of those places that one must visit at least ONCE. I was blessed to have come here 30 years to work in the medical field and I never left....fell completely in Love with the Island of Aloha. If you do come, let me know. If would be a great experience to meet the lady behind an awesome story. Warmest aloha, Xavier
Sorry for your loss and my father passed about the same time But, I feel he is with me many times; his words, his character and his love for our family and others have taught me much to help others when I can because that's what he did
My Mum passed 2 years April coming not easy you don't forget. But smile remembering the good times . Circle of life love we have to make room for the young ones but the old are always there with us they are part of us ❤️.Big hig x
I lost my husband of 50 years not long ago. This recording of Mr. Groban gives me the strength to go forward remembering our life together and how we lifted each other up during hard times.
This song got me through extremely dark times. The imagery of Jesus raising me up is so powerful and moving. I am brought to tears every time I listen to this song. Jesus’s love blasts through Josh’s words to our hearts.
hows it going, bro Psalm 118:8-9 “8 It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in humans. 9 It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes.” Ayo, I don’t mean to force anything on anyone, but we have various types of evidence for biblical events. *IF* anyone is interested, read on. *NOTE:* I can’t prove God to you. It all comes down to your choice to put your trust in Jesus Christ. That’s all faith is-TRUST. Unfortunately in these recent years, science and “religion” (as we know them today) have bastardized each other and themselves. Point is, faith is trusting in Jesus. It’s not a blind jump into what people deem “irrational.” Billy Graham said something reminiscent of that. I have no power over you. I can only tell you, but I can’t force you. (I mean, we’re conversing online lol. I’m not at your location… yet) james 4:8 “Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” hebrews 11:6 “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” Check out “HolyLandSite, Cold-Case Christianity, Delafé Testimonies.” There may be more, but those are the ones I know of. religion (Christianity) is just a relationship with God along with loving others (see james 1:27) *NOW, ONTO THE EVIDENCE!! (WHOO-HOO)* We also found Noah’s Ark hanging out in turkey, along with anchor stones marked with crosses signifying that it’s a revered place, along with altars and many other related findings. Look it up, it’s good stuff (HolyLandSite on TH-cam). more evidence for the Bible concerning cosmology and divine revelation in job 26:7, proverbs 8:27, Isaiah 40:22 (read on) The idea that the earth was round can be dated back to 600 BC in Greece. It was more widely accepted around the 3rd century (300 BC-201 BC) The idea that the Earth floated in space was concocted circa 500 BC. Note: time was “labeled” differently back then. for example, year 3000, year 420, year 69, year 0, year 1, year 2… and so on. Job 26:7: “. . .He [God] hangs the earth on nothing” The book of Job was supposedly written at 2100 BC. Proverbs 8:27: “. . .when He drew a circle on the face of the deep. . .” Proverbs was possibly written between 970 and 686 BC Isaiah 40:22: “it is He who sits above the circles of the earth. . .” Isaiah was written between 739 and 680 BC. This one doesn’t pertain to cosmology, but it refers to divine revelation nonetheless. So you know how the Euphrates River is drying up? Well, guess what? People in the Bible are saying: “Been there, done that.” Read on to learn more. Isaiah 11:15 “The Lord will dry up the gulf of the Egyptian sea; with a scorching wind he will sweep his hand over the Euphrates River. He will break it up into seven streams so that anyone can cross over in sandals.” Revelation 16:12 “The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East.” How did they know about this? You tell me, my fellow Zoomerz. *NOW FOR EVIDENCE OUTSIDE OF THE BIBLE* The Holy Spirit exists. I was suicidal for 9-ish months, but then I read John 3:16, and poof- the big sad went away in one night. Also, look up John Gabbana's (boonk gang) testimony. Dude did a lot of wacky stuff. He's changed now. Check out “Delafé Testimonies.” They got some good stuff as well *YOU CANNOT DENY THE WORK GOD DOES IN PEOPLE’S LIVES* also, the soul exists. someone i know (i won't say who-privacy reasons) saw their soul leaving their body. like pulling off a band-aid, except it doesn't hurt. *There are also non-Christian sources who have confirmed the existence and divinity of Jesus, some of which were hostile towards Christianity, such as:* Thallus (52 AD), who said Jesus lived, was crucified, and confirmed the darkness and earthquake that followed Christ’s crucifixion; Tacitus (56-120 AD), who called the followers of Christ “Christians,” confirmed that Jesus was crucified under Pontus Pilate’s command; Talmud (400-700 AD), confirmed that the disciples were martyred for their faith, and confirmed Jesus was executed the day before the Passover, and said Jesus had “magical” powers; Pliny the Younger (61-113 AD), who said that the Christians thought Jesus was/is God in the Flesh (God the Son); Phlegon (80-140 AD), who said Jesus had the ability to predict the future, and confirmed that Jesus was crucified during Caesar’s reign, confirmed Jesus rose from the dead, and confirmed He showed His wounds to confirm He was crucified; Celcus (175 AD), who said Jesus was born of a virgin, said His father is a carpenter, and confirmed Jesus had miraculous powers; (See cold-case Christianity for more details) Here’s the physical evidence of Jesus and His Resurrection: 1) No persecution would have started if He hadn’t come back (even the disciples thought Jesus would never make the ultimate comeback) 2) The Roman soldiers would have paid with their lives if they failed at their jobs 3) there was a 2-4 ton rock that 11-12 guys would have to move (The disciples deserted Him, remember? They didn’t have any help. Everyone said, “Crucify Him!” major L to those opposed to Jesus) 4) there was a Roman seal which was a metal pin that sealed the tomb stone (they would have to break that off; there were well-trained Roman guards there as well). 5) Stealing the Jesus’s body isn’t something the disciples would do (besides Judas. Although he hung himself after feeling remorse for betraying Jesus). 6) the disciples wouldn’t die for what they knew would be a lie. (The lie being Jesus never made the ultimate comeback. They were called to not be liars. I mean, they hung out with the Son of God/God in the flesh. Come on, now). faith, science, and reason, people (as we all know them today, and as it was before all those things were tarnished) hell was never meant for us, my fellow youtube user. it was for the devil and his squad, and God gave us the Way out of there since we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Brothers, what have we done. look at us. look at what we've become. This isn't right. we're wasting time going on about girls and sus drawings that don't give a f*ck about us. What is the point of lust? Why do we do this? This doesn't fix our problems, doesn't make the stress and pain go away. repent to God, friends. We must stay focused, brothers, on what really matters. I'm only 17, but I'm telling you, in the words of johnny cash, "sooner or later God will cut you down." I don’t want you to suffer like I did/do. *YOU WILL LOSE ALMOST EVERYTHING IMPORTANT TO YOU! PLEASE, FOR YOUR SAKES, REPENT AND TURN TO JESUS! SAVE YOURSELVES FROM YOURSELVES!* It’s a pit you *CAN NOT* get out of. *AGAIN, I DON’T WANT YOU TO SUFFER LIKE I DID/DO! I LOVE AND CARE FOR YOU TO TELL YOU THIS!* He is, to quote Skillet, "better than drugs." He is also *WAY* better than lust. love is greater than lust. You'll find out that this is true. love may hurt, and same for lust, but lust will keep you chained down, eventually killing you mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and possibly physically. AGAIN, I DON’T WANT YOU TO SUFFER LIKE I DID/DO! God knew and knows we are wack, but He decides He’ll come down and help us, despite our unfaithfulness. most relationships (like friendships, romantic relationships) aren't like this. Very few, but not a whole lot. hit me up to learn more about how science proves the Bible or just about God in general
This was my mom's favorite song and she would close her eyes and let it wash over her when she played the CD. We played it at her funeral 9 years ago. This is the first time I have allowed myself to play it since then. I held her in my arms when she died. It cuts me raw to listen to this song because I miss her more than words can say. Beautiful woman, I will see you again someday. For now, I still grieve.
This song has to make all the angels in heaven stop and listen. They desire so much to know some things only we humans can know and experience in our lives her on earth
Such a beautiful song. I have a very special Aunt that is fighting cancer right now and sent this song to her. She's in the hospital right now and this is the perfect encouragement to let go and let God. Thank you for such a moving testimony ❤
This song brings me to tears every time I hear it. I went through very tough times and Josh’ voice singing this song touches me deeply every time I hear it. I am not religious - but it’s the magic of the words combined with Josh’ voice Thank you Josh
I love this hymn so much. When I was young and my family's house burned down, other children in my class at school made fun of me because of the used clothes that a charity in town brought out for us. Those clothing were a gift to my parents, as they were in debt having to build another house for my family. My classmates didn't want to sit beside me, because I was the poor kid on the block. This beautiful hymn, "You Raise Me Up When I Am Down", along with others we sang at Church lifted me up to be a child of God Almighty. That Music was what I most needed at one of the most critical times in my young life.
This was the song my son choose for our dance at his wedding and we both cried all the way through it because I knew all the great memories we had of his growing up years. He knew the sacrifices that I had made to be sure he had a good childhood and got him started in his adult life. I would do it all over again a thousand times. My three boys were my pride and joy.
@@frostvg1535 Just to let you know, I raised them by myself as their father and I divorced. Sometimes I had to work full time and two part time jobs but they got through college and all are successful but I lost my middle son to cancer two months ago. My heart is broken but I know that he is in Heaven. I’m just grateful that I could be their mother and to know what love was and how to give it to them. Also, I never spoke bad of their father and they respect him and I hope me for it. Thank you for your comment.
June 19 my mom passed away and this song reminds me of how strong a woman she was up until she couldn't get out of bed. She raised us 8 children plus 4 of my father and she raised us to be strong and accept that life is not a guarantee but it is a gift to teach us to help thy neighbors and love one another with respect.. Love you mom .. Until I hold you in my arms again.
interesting that everyone is saying they want this played at their funeral, I want this to be my first dance in my wedding... I think it's a great song for newlywed couples.
Candice Bizzell I wanted “You we’re always on my mind” by Willie when I married in 1984, as my first dance , they refused because they thought it was sad, don’t let anyone tell you they won’t play it, it is your day. I ended up playing it as his funeral, bad choice, should have been the wedding for the meaning it had for us.
Many have sung this piece but this is the most moving fully symphonic version I’ve ever heard. Do I even have to point out the chorus! They sweep me off my feet. Thank you for your brilliant arrangement and performance Josh. You’re an angel lent to us by the heavens for a little while. Please live and sing for at least another century
It's 3:18AM feeling so broken and I can't stop listening to this song, am seated in silence waiting for God, I know He's watching over me and He hears.
Did the sun rise? The dawning of the new day is Gods gift for your strength and faith. Although difficult, summon your strength and rise confidant that you can do all things through he who strengthens you.
I am watching this video and the tears are pouring down my face. The Lord has put me on His shoulders, and gave me a Dad who was my greatest fan and encourager before he went to his Creator, followed by my lovely younger brother who was just like him. I miss them so much. Thank you Josh Groban for this timeless song.
I also cry everytime I hear this song. I lost Dad in 2004 played at his funeral.🙏💙😢 MOM requested it for her funeral also when time comes. BEAUTIFUL song.🙏😀❤
praying for you. Matthew 28:11-30- definitely worth a google. Also Psalms 34:18. Praying you know Jesus, He alone can truly heal (John 3:16 and Romans 6:23)
I believe your faith in God will make you whole. Just keep trusting and believing in his(God's) healing powers. He's willing and able to do that which seems impossible.
What a beautiful voice and song. God is amazing and can lift us up when we are down Sometimes we are our worst enemy, but he's there every second watching over me and you.
Dorian Well if this helps, I believe with all my heart that Josh Groban is a satanist and I know for a fact that he served as a psyops specialist with the Army's 5th Special Forces a few years ago.
you literaly have no education or valid basis do you even know the history of this song the music industry you lack the neccassary intelligence to dishonor this songs originator
He sings it amazingly and gets people in their emotions. No matter whose original song it is he can still give u shivers and bring tears to your eyes. Each generation has a song like this that becomes a new hot. Why tear them down. This was a beautiful and amazing composition of this song
When I'm at my lowest point in my life I listen to this song because it lifts my spirits and reminds me my God has always been there for me to raise me up from whatever trails in my life.✝️
True, when ever I look back at my life and see only one set of footprints, that's when the Lord was carrying me. He never abandoned me, even when I was lost.
@@principevanessa9974 That is 100% NOT TRUE to say God never judges. He absolutely does. He is literally the ultimate judge. He even tells Christian's that they can judge other (righteously) according to His word.
Two years ago, when my dad was nearing the end of his life, I’d sing this song to him and Dad would always squeeze my hand in response to hearing this song. At Dad’s funeral, this was one of the songs that we played. I still think of my dad every time that I hear this song.
Yes you are so right. Your dad will always be with you it doesnt matter where or when. I lost my Dad when i was 6 years old. I am 53 now and i have always felt he has been with me in the Best and The Worst and i have always passed his energy to my Teenage Son. 👍👍👍
This is such a spiritual song that it takes my breath away! When I am down and weary who promises to come and sit a while with me? Jesus says, "I will never leave you or forsake you". He is never too busy to come to me like some others. When I turn to Jesus in my weakness; He lifts me up on His shoulders like a loving father with their little one at a parade. Then I can be more than I ever could have been on my own. He enables me to "stand on impossible mountains that enter my life and still the stormy seas that so frequently trouble my life. I wonder if others see Jesus in this song the way I do? I hope so!
A greater power who loves you dearly, made you. You got chills because you responded to this song emotionally.. and only God can make you feel that way. There is a hole in all of our hearts, that only God can fill. A God-shaped hole! :c))
Yerb...to each his own, however..if the Holy Ghost ever comes to visit you...you will understand..and I hope it is soon...you don't know what you are missing out on!
I'm not an atheist, but I'm an antagonist. I don't really know what I believe but I do pray when things get tough. And, I don't know who or what I pray to when that happens.
I’m here for you, I have sent a Host of Angels to help and guide you. All you have to do is Believe, if God be for me who and be against me. you are special to Jesus. Ann from Ireland.
Oh honey God bless you too! I lost my mom 3 years ago! She would of been 89 in November! We were so very close! I was depressed for so long! She was wonderful! Now I'm better because God brought me back to life!!!! I love you mom and I miss you and dad! But I play a harp for anyone who wants to listen❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” hebrews 11:6 “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” Check out “HolyLandSite, Cold-Case Christianity, Delafé Testimonies.” There may be more, but those are the ones I know of. religion (Christianity) is just a relationship with God along with loving others (see james 1:27) *NOW, ONTO THE EVIDENCE!! (WHOO-HOO)* We also found Noah’s Ark hanging out in turkey, along with anchor stones marked with crosses signifying that it’s a revered place, along with altars and many other related findings. Look it up, it’s good stuff (HolyLandSite on TH-cam). more evidence for the Bible concerning cosmology and divine revelation in job 26:7, proverbs 8:27, Isaiah 40:22 (read on) The idea that the earth was round can be dated back to 600 BC in Greece. It was more widely accepted around the 3rd century (300 BC-201 BC) The idea that the Earth floated in space was concocted circa 500 BC. Note: time was “labeled” differently back then. for example, year 3000, year 420, year 69, year 0, year 1, year 2… and so on. Job 26:7: “. . .He [God] hangs the earth on nothing” The book of Job was supposedly written at 2100 BC. Proverbs 8:27: “. . .when He drew a circle on the face of the deep. . .” Proverbs was possibly written between 970 and 686 BC Isaiah 40:22: “it is He who sits above the circles of the earth. . .” Isaiah was written between 739 and 680 BC. This one doesn’t pertain to cosmology, but it refers to divine revelation nonetheless. So you know how the Euphrates River is drying up? Well, guess what? People in the Bible are saying: “Been there, done that.” Read on to learn more. Isaiah 11:15 “The Lord will dry up the gulf of the Egyptian sea; with a scorching wind he will sweep his hand over the Euphrates River. He will break it up into seven streams so that anyone can cross over in sandals.” Revelation 16:12 “The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East.” How did they know about this? You tell me, my fellow Zoomerz. *NOW FOR EVIDENCE OUTSIDE OF THE BIBLE* The Holy Spirit exists. I was suicidal for 9-ish months, but then I read John 3:16, and poof- the big sad went away in one night. Also, look up John Gabbana's (boonk gang) testimony. Dude did a lot of wacky stuff. He's changed now. Check out “Delafé Testimonies.” They got some good stuff as well *YOU CANNOT DENY THE WORK GOD DOES IN PEOPLE’S LIVES* also, the soul exists. someone i know (i won't say who-privacy reasons) saw their soul leaving their body. like pulling off a band-aid, except it doesn't hurt. *There are also non-Christian sources who have confirmed the existence and divinity of Jesus, some of which were hostile towards Christianity, such as:* Thallus (52 AD), who said Jesus lived, was crucified, and confirmed the darkness and earthquake that followed Christ’s crucifixion; Tacitus (56-120 AD), who called the followers of Christ “Christians,” confirmed that Jesus was crucified under Pontus Pilate’s command; Talmud (400-700 AD), confirmed that the disciples were martyred for their faith, and confirmed Jesus was executed the day before the Passover, and said Jesus had “magical” powers; Pliny the Younger (61-113 AD), who said that the Christians thought Jesus was/is God in the Flesh (God the Son); Phlegon (80-140 AD), who said Jesus had the ability to predict the future, and confirmed that Jesus was crucified during Caesar’s reign, confirmed Jesus rose from the dead, and confirmed He showed His wounds to confirm He was crucified; Celcus (175 AD), who said Jesus was born of a virgin, said His father is a carpenter, and confirmed Jesus had miraculous powers; (See cold-case Christianity for more details) Here’s the physical evidence of Jesus and His Resurrection: 1) No persecution would have started if He hadn’t come back (even the disciples thought Jesus would never make the ultimate comeback) 2) The Roman soldiers would have paid with their lives if they failed at their jobs 3) there was a 2-4 ton rock that 11-12 guys would have to move (The disciples deserted Him, remember? They didn’t have any help. Everyone said, “Crucify Him!” major L to those opposed to Jesus) 4) there was a Roman seal which was a metal pin that sealed the tomb stone (they would have to break that off; there were well-trained Roman guards there as well). 5) Stealing the Jesus’s body isn’t something the disciples would do (besides Judas. Although he hung himself after feeling remorse for betraying Jesus). 6) the disciples wouldn’t die for what they knew would be a lie. (The lie being Jesus never made the ultimate comeback. They were called to not be liars. I mean, they hung out with the Son of God/God in the flesh. Come on, now). faith, science, and reason, people (as we all know them today, and as it was before all those things were tarnished) hell was never meant for us, my fellow youtube user. it was for the devil and his squad, and God gave us the Way out of there since we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. hit me up to learn more about how science proves the Bible or just about God in general
He sings like he really believes every beautiful sound that come out of his mouth! Really breathtaking. Also a wonderful human being! God bless Josh Grobin❤️🙏✝️❤️
I'm a single mom, and raising my baby boy all alone. This song gives me strength. I love him so much and I will never leave him until I die & I know my baby will be a good boy.
My 84 year old friend is on hospice , she loves your music,and everyday I put your music to her ear. It won’t be long but at least she can hear your voice till the end. 😢
I was 5 years old when I lost my grandmother to cancer. This was her favourite song and we played it at her funeral. Even to this day as I’m 18 I turn back to this song when I’m stressed or depressed because it makes me feel like I right back there in her supportive arms.
in the video clip the could put in kids in need to tell everyone that we are the same and with support everything is possible even in people with needs
My Dad past away in January. We couldn't be with him in the hospital because of covid. The doctors and nurses played this for him at the end. Its my morning ritual to listen every morning and talk to my Dad. Miss him so it hurts so bad. He was the BEST father. I'm everything I am because of him. 🙏❤️🙏❤️ Still listening every day. ❤ Years later still here. Missing my Dad 💜🙏😢 Oct. 2024
Praying for our nation during this trying time. I'm dying, and thru it all, the angels and our Lord have been beside me. No Earthly presence has held my nhand or carried me. GOD HAS
May God continue to comfort you and hold you in His loving hands! I am praying for you to have peace, maybe even be able to forgive those who left you alone and did bad things to you. Obviously I don''t know your exact situation, but possibly it helps to speak to somebody from your local church about it.
Lori, I’m saddened that you are dying. We all will die too. This is not our home. Our home is in Heaven with our Lord, our redeemer and Saviour. Our life here on earth is short and the meaning of life is to follow Him and await patiently until He calls us home. In Heaven there is no illness, sorrow, nor tribulations but joy to be with our God. Rejoice in the Lord and know that He loves you more than any person can here on earth. Even if we have lots of friends, married with children, and have parents, no one can replace God. He walks with us daily and when we are going through pain, depression, illnesses, etc. He is the only one that will never abandon you, He will walk with you daily, hold your hand, and he is carrying you right now. No one on earth will love you like He does and He will never disappoint you. When each of us die, that journey is undertaken with Him alone. If you have God with you, you realize you are not alone. I will keep you in my prayers, so here on earth I’m your friend. I hope this consoles you.
My little Brother loved this song and found such encouragement in it. Now he’s in Heaven, and I’m here listening for that same encouragement he sought. This song is absolutely beautiful! If anyone should happen to read this, I want you to know that I know it’s been a long, hard couple of years. And I want you to know that you are loved! I’m praying for everyone of my fellow human beings! ♥️ May God bless you and your families!
Thank you so much.🌹 I'm sorry for your loss of your brother💔 but you will see him again one day in Heaven I know. I wish you God's many blessings in return! And a happy New Year. 🙏💙🌟💙🙏
A Soul Reviving song. This song just came to my mind this morning and caused me to have s flashback over all I have been through this 2024. In all of these, I am not broken because God's gat my back. To anyone going through any form of storm, cast your Burden on the Lord Jesus Christ, He's surely there to see you through. 🙏
My mother passed in 2017 and years before she asked for us to play this song and it was the most heartbreaking song, still can’t listen without bawling like a big ol baby Jan. 30, 2023
@@michaelcollins8328 We had a great relationship. She was the best person I’ve ever met. She would do anything for anybody. Thank you for your comment.
@@bridgetackerman8512 Then you were very fortunate. My mother was a very mean person who took delight in telling me and my brother we were not wanted. When she died, neither of us went to her funeral because we did not care what happened to her.
This was played at my grandpas funeral, what a blessing to hear this now. Makes me feel stronger, praying for everyone listening to this due to pain and loss.
I lost my grandad a couple months ago to pneumonia and I know your pain try to stay stong and don't give up theirs always hope and if you need someone to talk to I'm here 😁👍🏼stay strong I have faith in you 💪🏼have a good day
@RANA RAYYAN MOHAMMAD RANA RAYYAN MOHAMMAD awww I'm so sorry to hear that my friend just try your best to keep pushing through it man I have faith in you
Who's still listening to this amazing 👏 😍 🙌 ✨️ ❤️ song in December, 2024. This song absolutely resonated with me because if it wasn't for God I would nit be where I am today. Now I have been following my spiritual calling for almost 1 year and recently started my own U-tube channel 3 months ago to share my story as the main character and my spiritual gifts 🎁 🙏 and talents with the world 🌎 ❤️ ✨️. I am now giving back my spiritual gifts 🎁 ❤️ ✨️ and talents back to God for his purpose ❤️ 😇❤️🔥💫🙏.
We played this song at my mother's funeral a couple of weeks ago. I just turned 40 six days before she passed. I cried like a baby. Josh Groban's voice can pull emotion out of you that you never thought possible. I'll always be a fan. I miss my mom. 😢
I miss my mother too 😢 3 yes still hurts. Jesus promised that he go to prepare a play. That where here he is we may be there also. He tell us to Let not our heart be troubled. That we believe in God believe also in him. No man come to the Father but by Jesus he is the way the truth and the life. Paul said to be absent from the body is to be present we with the lord. Talk to Jesus he loves you . He got you.❤❤❤❤❤😊
What an uplifting song laying in my hospital bed waiting for an emergency surgery .i am so impressed with all the hospital staff working here so they can save lives. The Coronavirus has elevated us to fully respect how hard they have to work in these crazy times. It’s like someone hit the slow motion button of life.
I sadly lost my baby sister October 22, 2016. this was our favorite song we sang together, because we lost our mother at a young age and we said we'd always be there for each other. I am on my own now with my 2 daughters that I need to be strong for. I find comfort knowing my mom and sister have been reunited in the spirit world.
Linsey Ewenin My ❤ goes out to you. I have a sister and my Mother is still alive and we're very close to one another. I don't know what I would do if I lost either of them. Keep close to your two little girls for as long as you can, carrying on the tradition of singing this great song with them, and share with them your memories of their Grandmother and Auntie. They'll love you for it. Take care of yourself!
IQvest Group it get better over time but you never really heal who have to hold on to the good times and memories. I went through a lot went to heavy drinking and doing bad stuff trying to rid myself and did everything I could to fill the hole in my heart lots of darkness in the old heart has taken me a while to learn and not be upset have to think they we're all in pain and now has I get older I going health pain but I gotten a lot better. I'm here if you or anyone needs someone to talk to..
Listening to this song, reminds me of my mom. It reminds me in the struggles she went through raising us as a single parent. You did well mom! May your soul rest in peace🙏
When music is this good,it never gets old.
James 1:17 God is all good
@@aleysha4766 many belong into all kind of religious cults yet serving the one and the same; BAAL, but ONLY CHRISTIANS - new creatures in CHRIST shall be in heaven.
There is choosing based on free will, GOD OR MAMMON?
Who are we? - old wicked sinners in BAAL or born again - new creatures in CHRIST?
the harsh truth- God does make it clear that ONLY his Disciples will be saved,- He loves us but we MUST be Disiples!
Absolutely
Am listening
I almost cry whenever I hear this song, it feels like God is with me and beside me, I remember my ups and downs in life and how I cope up by praying to God. My faith to Him will not fade away until my last breath, Thank you God
I listen to this incredible song everty night before going to bed…it makes me feel like God is holding my hand.
@@tonipalavis7536 indeed he is ❤
How beautifully written!
I was sure this song is about GOD until I have seen this video. Absolutely unsuitable for song.
Amen and amen.
Growing up, my grandma would play this all the time during long drives when we would head up north. My grandma passed away a few years ago, it didn’t hit me first when I lost my grandma in a car accident, and then when the funeral happened, they played this song and I literally cried my eyes out because I had a flash of memories come before my eyes to losing an amazing grandma, who was there for everything and was great support. Music is very powerful.
EDIT; it's been close to 9 years since I lost her, i'm thankful for her. and i'm thankful for all the love i've gotten from here. It's helped me a lot over the years. I still miss her a lot and always try to visit her grave as much as I can.
Ghost Killer Entertainment Do u know roblox play it pls 😳😀😄
That must've been a very hard part of your life
HyperPlays ! It was hard since we didn’t talked for a year and didn’t see her much and it hit me hard I didn’t see her much before that happened.
that would've sucked i feel sorry
Fervil Hardeman Someone died and you are talking about god damn ROBLOX?
I’m going through a very difficult time. Please pray for me everyone. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hang in there, dude. It'll get better, I promise!!
May God bless you and raise you up.
Bog Te blagoslovio i dao Ti snage da izdržiš 🙏 ❤️
Pozdrav iz Croatia 🇭🇷
God is being with you in darkest times to lead you. Please thank God every single minute in your life
Let this song touch ur heart and soul. It will raise you up.
I’ve just lost my 91 y/o husband and two days later my 63y/o son died too. So many people over the years have commented that I’m such a strong woman. I know in my own strength I’m definitely not but tonight these words had new meaning to me and I now understand where my strength lies. I have always known that but I have never felt the weakness and frailty such as I am this week and these words seemed to perfectly describe my need for the Heavenly Father’s strength raising me up.
Just saw this tonight...praying for you right now from the Midwest.
Be comforted by the beauty of Josh Groban's angelic voice and know that you are not alone. God loves you
Prayers
I totally understand where you are coming fyom. I am 70 back in hospital with my COPD. Feeling frail and vulnerable atm. I’m always there for others and bern told ftom anout 7 years old you are a strong person. I’ve always believed my strength comes from within g myself but I know I rely very heavenly on my Heavenly Father to support me and raise me as he sees got. I just wonder how much longer and how much more I can take. Then I see or speak or get a hug from my grand children or if so lucky my great grandchildren. And I know he lives through them too. Even if they don’t fully understand that themselves yet. I know he walks amongst us. Trying his best for humanity. But it’s not an easy world yo love and understand sometimes. But keep your faith and listen to music that feeds and soothes your found GOD BLESS YOU AND WALK BESIDES😮 YOU.
Bless your heart. That's a lot of loss. Some people think strength is clenching our fists and never letting them see you sweat. Strength for me is allowing myself to be vulnerable. That's when love can get in and help you heal. I raise my hand to God, and I ask for help. That's what he's there for.
Who is listening in January 2025? ❤
P.S.: Have a wonderful day!🩵
Me. 💚
💚🌿
It's sublime, Josh Groban!!!!!!!😊
Lah
I'm just playing it - 18th October 2024, 5pm GMT
I'm a 76 year old. I listen to Josh all the time. This song speaks to my heart. Especially when I'm going through tough times. Been a Grobanite for some years. Thanks Josh.
This video is timeless. Even though it was made twenty years ago, or sometime close to then, it brings tears to my eyes. Does anyone know who wrote the lyrics to "You Raise Me Up"?
@@jeaniew4466 Originally written and sung by the duo Secret Garden, which is how I first came across it.
when I am alone....its my favorite song and I like it so much!!!!
..
Wow 76 and you still have great taste in music well done may you grow in gods grace.
🥰
I know we are in the last month of this year, I ask the God that all those who have suffered from mental health issues Like me, may God heal us from all suffering so that we can have a air to breathe.
He is the breath of life.
May Our Heavenly Father lift your burdens from you & give you peace.
I suffer from PTSD, God bless you
I'm one of you. Mental illness is a shaming disease; to ashamed to admit the weakness and to fearful to be recognized. Praise God, Jesus died for our diseases. I'll pray for your healing too. All of us who suffer.
Who's listening Now ❤. Jesus Christ is Lord . HE RAISED ME UP. ❤
Yes❤
Whenever I am broken he pieces me together in my sadness he gives me joy and he fulfils my heart ❤with joy love and happiness
Maybe I should sing this song about Him for world to awaken in His love like how I found love when I was at the lowest point in my life... 😭💪
Amen & Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 everyone
Me, Diana, SCA, raised me up in 2015. Oct 29th. I live to give testimony to God-YHs great mercy, love, and grace... ❤
Amen
This guy’s voice is possibly the best I’ve ever heard the clarity and tone is perfect..
Thank you 100
I ❤this song!
And frequency!!! His low bass voice reminds me of how the gates of other universe would sound!!!
His brother Andy had more potential but was a disappointment to his dad.
Dude is ridiculous talented and he seems like a good guy aswell
I am almost 92yrs. Old! I Love ❤ your music Josh! You lift me up! I love your Ava Maria!!

Hello beautiful
５５歳の若さで夫が亡くなったのはもう１５年前。
しかも、その10カ月前には長年介護をした姑も見送りました。まだ、高校生だった娘を抱えて、真っ暗闇を歩いているような日々でした。
そんな時にレコード屋さんでこの歌声に出会いました。
その美しい、柔らかい、温かい歌声に 救われた思いがしました。今、70代に入り 人生の最終章。またこの歌声を聴きながら、毎日を大切に生きています。
When my Mother passed away, with cancer, I was at her bedside. This was the first song I heard after her passing. (Praise You My God!!)
So, so sorry. May God bring you healing, restoration, and joy as you reflect on her memory ❤️🙏
I played this song at my mother's funeral when she passed away 10 years ago. Josh Groban was her favorite.
I love this song to see no matter how far you down God still can raise you up .
Amen!
I'm sorry for your loss may Ur angel R.I.P amen 😢
My son Adam who is five ears old and blind has been listening to to this song since he was born. He requests this song everyday. I myself love it since he raises me up everyday. Love it.
How did your son go blind? what cause it?
You can use eyebright, bilberry and Lutein helps for the eyes. Put the word health benefits of eyebright for each one of those and you'll get the meaning of what it is?
Read Psalms 121 verse 1 and 2
So good also did you see **Margie Chadburn**** Love Blind
We all need to he uplifted from time to time.
I lost my beautiful wife last year, She just love this song.she was 92 yrs old and miss her so much, so I listen to this song and see her in the chair listening to Josh just sing. tears in my eyes. but I know she is listening also.An Angel in Heven......
Wr are not angels
We are created in His image, Adam.
Angels are a different creation
Lei sta sicuramente ascoltando...
I am so sorry for your sadness. You are bonded for all eternity. She waits.
So sorry for your loss. Peace and blessings.
God bless you Dusty she is out of pain in a much greater Place she's probably reading the Bible and playing cards with my mom
I raised my kids by myself, I will never forget the day my Son played this song for me. Today he is married with 2 children of his own and just got a promotion at work. I cry every-time I hear this song.
@Boo I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me. How are you doing today?
Congratulations Mom! You are a real hero!🎉🎉🎉❤

My favorite thing about this song is that it means something different to each person who listens to it. To me it is religious and represents my relationship with God.
To someone else it may describe their relationship with a family member or friend.
*My point is that a lot of people can take something from this song, and I feel like it brings us together as humans.* and that is something that truly makes me happy. 😊
Very true!
Stupid. We all know it means shrek
Christopher Quintanilla that is because it is not ogre yet
kayla cc Kayla, you worded that SO perfectly! Thank you! May I say to the crafty guy, your wording to Kayla, "I'm not calling you stupid but if Santa doesn't exist...God doesn't either..." And this makes perfect sense...HOW? Someone else in this conversation may need to consider at least what they said stupid, if not themself! Also, for Heaven's sake LEARN TO SPELL!!!
the crafty guy Santa has no evidence of existence, however there is undeniable proof of a creator, matter cannot give rise to information, and DNA is an information source, therefore you need ultra advanced aliens that came from aliens that came from aliens.. Infinitely, to have planted that information on earth, or you would have needed God, or gods, those are your two options.
I lost my way a long time ago and have recently tried to reconnect with and rebuild my relationship with God, this song is an amazing reminder that He will always lift us up even if we do not realize it's happening. May everyone reading this have an amazing day
God bless you man
God bless you!! Always remember God loves you!
God Bless you
God bless you man, thank you so much man. Im going through something similar, so when I read this I started crying . I can barely see what I'm typing i'm crying so much haha
I agree ..
Just had a service for my aunty who was 97, and this song just moved me to tears. This helped me to let go of sadness, and I knew JESUS was right there telling me it's OK. Thank you for this precious song. Your voice is so heartfelt.
Damn Jesus must’ve been quite a creep for being in a stranger’s room
May Your Auntie Rest in Peace 🙏
What a terrible thing to say 😢

Here I am at 7:15 a.m. after my shift sobbing listening to this song thinking of all the things she has done for me. THIS is the beauty of music. Josh Groban, thank you sir.
It was Wednesday, my dudes.
Thank you for your service.
Congratulations Sir.
Congrats bro...
Thanks Lux
My grandma is dying, this is her favorite artist. She was like a little girl with how much she loved Josh. She was a part of his fan club and all. I used to hate this song as she would blast it all the time. She used to tell me “now this is real music, not your hippity hop sh*t” and here I am listening to this in her honor. I love you grandma Juni.
Im sorry for your loss,this is the song i sang before both of my grandfathers's died,this was such an important song to me and thousands of ppl. R.I.P, i still remember singing this song at the church after my grandfather's (my mom's dad) funeral
Also me singing this to my other grandfather (my dad's dad) while he was in bed before he died a few months after my mom's dad died, its hard to have both of your grandfather's die on both side of the family..
I pray that Jesus wraps his arms around her , dealing with death is never easy , but don't lose hope just yet
@@EvitaN thank you, she passed this last Friday
@@jordanbradley9645 I’m sorry for your loss. May God rest her and comfort you and all her loved ones.

I am still listening in April 2024 because it spoke volumes to me this morning. Thank you Jesus
Amen and God bless you today ❤

This isnt a religious song but it very clearly has religious undertones and impacts people in a religious way which i find interesting.
Amen!
Amen
I just lost my dad this morning, and I needed this song. He made me who I am.
Update: Wow. I am humbled by the love and support. My heart goes out to all of you that have also lost a loved one. My dad lives on in the memories, but I miss his jokes, his laugh, his advise, hearing him say "Love you, Buckwheat" etc..
May the Lord comfort you my dear. Am sorry for your loss
So sorry for your loss my friend. Please be strong!
He’s not gone. He’s still with you. You are going to have the most amazing transformation. Wait for it.... he’s guiding you
Sorry

Not for me. Screw that bastard for putting half the worlds population in misery. Why do hungry children serve a purpose? Suffering people all around the world and you're claiming that he's gracious? I don't know if he's real or not but if it's all true, he's a very cruel man or woman and not one that I admire.
Not for me. Screw that bastard for putting half the worlds population in misery. What is the purpose of starving children? If god is real, I don't admire him or her.
@Deborah I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me. How are you doing today? It’s nice to meet you on here.
Amen & AMEN! It's waaayyyy too late to try to convince me God doesn't exist. I know better and I know I belong to Jesus, praise God!
This song brought me through raising 3 children alone, caring for Mom with Alzheimers and working 13 days on, one day off for 7 years.
One dreary , early dark winter's day, I was driving, feeling I couldn't go on any longer with my burdens when this song came on the car radio. All of a sudden tears were blinding my drive, so I pulled over and cried the cry of a lifetime.
This song reminded me I did not have to walk alone anymore. I'll be forever grateful this song came at such a time. Thank you, God.... and Josh Groban.
MARVELOUS SENTIMENT. Thanks for sharing ...
You are a strong woman, Linda. I am positive life will take you where you wanna go! Till then stay strong! Wishing you the best!
@joshgroban673 I have been a fan since early 2000's.
Since, Mom has passed, the children are married, with their own.
Today, I am retired, enjoying my family and Grandchildren.
Thank you for your comment and the beautiful song that gave me faith to carry on.
Aloha to you LInda....all the way from the Islands of Aloha Hawaii USA. Mahalo for sharing your story with us! You are a true inspiration that it can be done through Perseverance. WE all at some point have tough moments, tough experience, but we must learn to rise above it all. Once again, I loved reading your message as I listen to this song, this early morning here on the beautiful Island of O'ahu-Hawaii USA.
Have an amazing retirement and if you have never been to the Islands of Aloha, do visit. It is one of those places that one must visit at least ONCE. I was blessed to have come here 30 years to work in the medical field and I never left....fell completely in Love with the Island of Aloha. If you do come, let me know. If would be a great experience to meet the lady behind an awesome story.
Warmest aloha,
Xavier
Yes, God said " I will never leave you or forsake you." God bless😊

My dad passed away 2 years ago. Today is the second anniversary. I can't stop crying and listening to this song. Take care of your parents forever.
If he could he’d tell you”Move forward, live a great life, serve and love others, and I’ll see you soon. And remember I love you”. You make him proud.
I'm sorry for your loss and pray the Lord takes away your pain more and more each day.
Sorry for your loss and my father passed about the same time
But, I feel he is with me many times; his words, his character and his love for our family and others have taught me much to help others when I can because that's what he did
I'm sorry for your loss Meeni.
My Mum passed 2 years April coming not easy you don't forget. But smile remembering the good times . Circle of life love we have to make room for the young ones but the old are always there with us they are part of us ❤️.Big hig x
I lost my husband of 50 years not long ago. This recording of Mr. Groban gives me the strength to go forward remembering our life together and how we lifted each other up during hard times.
I am praying for you in your loss
Your husband is always there . Your guardian angel 😇 who will always protect u
Truly believe that
That's what love is all about. Bless you, Pam. Prayers for comfort and strength.
It’s Beautiful Pam, and He’s waiting on the Last Dance for You!
Stay Strong🥰🌹
I'm listening in January of 2025. Beautiful song 🎵
This song got me through extremely dark times. The imagery of Jesus raising me up is so powerful and moving. I am brought to tears every time I listen to this song. Jesus’s love blasts through Josh’s words to our hearts.
hows it going, bro
Psalm 118:8-9
“8 It is better to take refuge in the Lord
than to trust in humans.
9 It is better to take refuge in the Lord
than to trust in princes.”
Ayo, I don’t mean to force anything on anyone, but we have various types of evidence for biblical events. *IF* anyone is interested, read on.
*NOTE:* I can’t prove God to you. It all comes down to your choice to put your trust in Jesus Christ. That’s all faith is-TRUST. Unfortunately in these recent years, science and “religion” (as we know them today) have bastardized each other and themselves.
Point is, faith is trusting in Jesus. It’s not a blind jump into what people deem “irrational.” Billy Graham said something reminiscent of that.

james 4:8 “Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.”
hebrews 11:6 “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”
Check out “HolyLandSite, Cold-Case Christianity, Delafé Testimonies.” There may be more, but those are the ones I know of.
religion (Christianity) is just a relationship with God along with loving others (see james 1:27)
*NOW, ONTO THE EVIDENCE!! (WHOO-HOO)*
We also found Noah’s Ark hanging out in turkey, along with anchor stones marked with crosses signifying that it’s a revered place, along with altars and many other related findings. Look it up, it’s good stuff (HolyLandSite on TH-cam).
more evidence for the Bible concerning cosmology and divine revelation in job 26:7, proverbs 8:27, Isaiah 40:22 (read on)
The idea that the earth was round can be dated back to 600 BC in Greece. It was more widely accepted around the 3rd century (300 BC-201 BC) The idea that the Earth floated in space was concocted circa 500 BC. Note: time was “labeled” differently back then. for example, year 3000, year 420, year 69, year 0, year 1, year 2… and so on.
Job 26:7: “. . .He [God] hangs the earth on nothing” The book of Job was supposedly written at 2100 BC.
Proverbs 8:27: “. . .when He drew a circle on the face of the deep. . .” Proverbs was possibly written between 970 and 686 BC
Isaiah 40:22: “it is He who sits above the circles of the earth. . .” Isaiah was written between 739 and 680 BC.
This one doesn’t pertain to cosmology, but it refers to divine revelation nonetheless. So you know how the Euphrates River is drying up? Well, guess what? People in the Bible are saying: “Been there, done that.” Read on to learn more.
Isaiah 11:15 “The Lord will dry up the gulf of the Egyptian sea; with a scorching wind he will sweep his hand over the Euphrates River. He will break it up into seven streams so that anyone can cross over in sandals.”
Revelation 16:12 “The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East.”
How did they know about this? You tell me, my fellow Zoomerz.
*NOW FOR EVIDENCE OUTSIDE OF THE BIBLE*
The Holy Spirit exists. I was suicidal for 9-ish months, but then I read John 3:16, and poof- the big sad went away in one night.
Also, look up John Gabbana's (boonk gang) testimony. Dude did a lot of wacky stuff. He's changed now.
Check out “Delafé Testimonies.” They got some good stuff as well
*YOU CANNOT DENY THE WORK GOD DOES IN PEOPLE’S LIVES*
also, the soul exists. someone i know (i won't say who-privacy reasons) saw their soul leaving their body. like pulling off a band-aid, except it doesn't hurt.
*There are also non-Christian sources who have confirmed the existence and divinity of Jesus, some of which were hostile towards Christianity, such as:*
Thallus (52 AD), who said Jesus lived, was crucified, and confirmed the darkness and earthquake that followed Christ’s crucifixion;
Tacitus (56-120 AD), who called the followers of Christ “Christians,” confirmed that Jesus was crucified under Pontus Pilate’s command;
Talmud (400-700 AD), confirmed that the disciples were martyred for their faith, and confirmed Jesus was executed the day before the Passover, and said Jesus had “magical” powers;
Pliny the Younger (61-113 AD), who said that the Christians thought Jesus was/is God in the Flesh (God the Son);
Phlegon (80-140 AD), who said Jesus had the ability to predict the future, and confirmed that Jesus was crucified during Caesar’s reign, confirmed Jesus rose from the dead, and confirmed He showed His wounds to confirm He was crucified;
Celcus (175 AD), who said Jesus was born of a virgin, said His father is a carpenter, and confirmed Jesus had miraculous powers;
(See cold-case Christianity for more details)
Here’s the physical evidence of Jesus and His Resurrection:
1) No persecution would have started if He hadn’t come back (even the disciples thought Jesus would never make the ultimate comeback)
2) The Roman soldiers would have paid with their lives if they failed at their jobs
3) there was a 2-4 ton rock that 11-12 guys would have to move (The disciples deserted Him, remember? They didn’t have any help. Everyone said, “Crucify Him!” major L to those opposed to Jesus)
4) there was a Roman seal which was a metal pin that sealed the tomb stone (they would have to break that off; there were well-trained Roman guards there as well).
5) Stealing the Jesus’s body isn’t something the disciples would do (besides Judas. Although he hung himself after feeling remorse for betraying Jesus).
6) the disciples wouldn’t die for what they knew would be a lie. (The lie being Jesus never made the ultimate comeback. They were called to not be liars. I mean, they hung out with the Son of God/God in the flesh. Come on, now).
faith, science, and reason, people (as we all know them today, and as it was before all those things were tarnished)
hell was never meant for us, my fellow youtube user. it was for the devil and his squad, and God gave us the Way out of there since we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
Brothers, what have we done. look at us. look at what we've become. This isn't right. we're wasting time going on about girls and sus drawings that don't give a f*ck about us. What is the point of lust? Why do we do this? This doesn't fix our problems, doesn't make the stress and pain go away.
repent to God, friends. We must stay focused, brothers, on what really matters. I'm only 17, but I'm telling you, in the words of johnny cash, "sooner or later God will cut you down."
I don’t want you to suffer like I did/do.
*YOU WILL LOSE ALMOST EVERYTHING IMPORTANT TO YOU! PLEASE, FOR YOUR SAKES, REPENT AND TURN TO JESUS! SAVE YOURSELVES FROM YOURSELVES!* It’s a pit you *CAN NOT* get out of. *AGAIN, I DON’T WANT YOU TO SUFFER LIKE I DID/DO! I LOVE AND CARE FOR YOU TO TELL YOU THIS!* He is, to quote Skillet, "better than drugs." He is also *WAY* better than lust. love is greater than lust. You'll find out that this is true. love may hurt, and same for lust, but lust will keep you chained down, eventually killing you mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and possibly physically. AGAIN, I DON’T WANT YOU TO SUFFER LIKE I DID/DO!
God knew and knows we are wack, but He decides He’ll come down and help us, despite our unfaithfulness. most relationships (like friendships, romantic relationships) aren't like this. Very few, but not a whole lot.

Here 8th January 😆
@DerrickC9511 everything is well except the cold but anyway how are you doing ?
yeahhh
This was my mom's favorite song and she would close her eyes and let it wash over her when she played the CD. We played it at her funeral 9 years ago. This is the first time I have allowed myself to play it since then. I held her in my arms when she died. It cuts me raw to listen to this song because I miss her more than words can say. Beautiful woman, I will see you again someday. For now, I still grieve.
❤️
It minister to my heart ithink about my relationship with thelord Jesus Christ
I’m so sorry for your loss
This song has to make all the angels in heaven stop and listen. They desire so much to know some things only we humans can know and experience in our lives her on earth
♥️
Such a beautiful song. I have a very special Aunt that is fighting cancer right now and sent this song to her. She's in the hospital right now and this is the perfect encouragement to let go and let God. Thank you for such a moving testimony ❤
This song brings me to tears every time I hear it. I went through very tough times and Josh’ voice singing this song touches me deeply every time I hear it. I am not religious - but it’s the magic of the words combined with Josh’ voice
Thank you Josh
Yeah 🥲
Right now looking at the world we all need to seek Christ more than ever!
I love this hymn so much. When I was young and my family's house burned down, other children in my class at school made fun of me because of the used clothes that a charity in town brought out for us. Those clothing were a gift to my parents, as they were in debt having to build another house for my family. My classmates didn't want to sit beside me, because I was the poor kid on the block.
This beautiful hymn, "You Raise Me Up When I Am Down", along with others we sang at Church lifted me up to be a child of God Almighty. That Music was what I most needed at one of the most critical times in my young life.
Thanks for your sincere love and support 💞💞
I really appreciate 🙏🙏
Saddest thing ever. I'm so sorry you went through that. ♡♡♡
I would have gladly sat next to you and been your friend, as you are a survivor
Lmao, funny.
I too wore used clothes, we were poor and my parents did the best they could. We had shelter, food and loads of love Which is a blessing
This was the song my son choose for our dance at his wedding and we both cried all the way through it because I knew all the great memories we had of his growing up years. He knew the sacrifices that I had made to be sure he had a good childhood and got him started in his adult life. I would do it all over again a thousand times. My three boys were my pride and joy.
So lovely..
So beautiful.

i know dads don’t really get this much but i’m so proud of you for being such a good parent!
@@frostvg1535
Just to let you know, I raised them by myself as their father and I divorced. Sometimes I had to work full time and two part time jobs but they got through college and all are successful but I lost my middle son to cancer two months ago. My heart is broken but I know that he is in Heaven. I’m just grateful that I could be their mother and to know what love was and how to give it to them. Also, I never spoke bad of their father and they respect him and I hope me for it. Thank you for your comment.
Dedicated to my Father. He is my Hero.
My GOD JEHOVÁ, always raised me up.
June 19 my mom passed away and this song reminds me of how strong a woman she was up until she couldn't get out of bed. She raised us 8 children plus 4 of my father and she raised us to be strong and accept that life is not a guarantee but it is a gift to teach us to help thy neighbors and love one another with respect.. Love you mom .. Until I hold you in my arms again.
❤

I am so sorry for your loss. May your mom rest in peach, and may God be with you.

interesting that everyone is saying they want this played at their funeral, I want this to be my first dance in my wedding... I think it's a great song for newlywed couples.
THANK YOU 😭 And same 😄 imma play this at my wedding it's so beautifull 💖
Yes it would be, awesome
@@jakelehtinen3806 what is wrong with you?
It was played at my wedding. My wife chose this song
Candice Bizzell I wanted “You we’re always on my mind” by Willie when I married in 1984, as my first dance , they refused because they thought it was sad, don’t let anyone tell you they won’t play it, it is your day. I ended up playing it as his funeral, bad choice, should have been the wedding for the meaning it had for us.
Many have sung this piece but this is the most moving fully symphonic version I’ve ever heard. Do I even have to point out the chorus! They sweep me off my feet. Thank you for your brilliant arrangement and performance Josh. You’re an angel lent to us by the heavens for a little while. Please live and sing for at least another century

It's 3:18AM feeling so broken and I can't stop listening to this song, am seated in silence waiting for God, I know He's watching over me and He hears.
Did the sun rise? The dawning of the new day is Gods gift for your strength and faith. Although difficult, summon your strength and rise confidant that you can do all things through he who strengthens you.
Good luck! God is with you and stay strong, he will hear your prayers and thoughts
He is with you!!! You don’t have to wait on Him, He is always there.

Well if this helps, I believe with all my heart that Josh Groban is a satanist and I know for a fact that he served as a psyops specialist with the Army's 5th Special Forces a few years ago.

When I'm at my lowest point in my life I listen to this song because it lifts my spirits and reminds me my God has always been there for me to raise me up from whatever trails in my life.✝️
True, when ever I look back at my life and see only one set of footprints, that's when the Lord was carrying me. He never abandoned me, even when I was lost.
A big Amen
God never judges loves u always . Pray to him all the time when I feel down
@@principevanessa9974 That is 100% NOT TRUE to say God never judges. He absolutely does. He is literally the ultimate judge. He even tells Christian's that they can judge other (righteously) according to His word.
Love it !!
Listening to his singing You Raise Me Up is like on an invisible bridge for communicating with God.
Two years ago, when my dad was nearing the end of his life, I’d sing this song to him and Dad would always squeeze my hand in response to hearing this song. At Dad’s funeral, this was one of the songs that we played. I still think of my dad every time that I hear this song.
GOD Bless You 🙏
Me too!
Yes you are so right. Your dad will always be with you it doesnt matter where or when. I lost my Dad when i was 6 years old. I am 53 now and i have always felt he has been with me in the Best and The Worst and i have always passed his energy to my Teenage Son. 👍👍👍
My husband died dementia u raised me up. To go on
I’m so sorry for your loss. 💔
This is such a spiritual song that it takes my breath away! When I am down and weary who promises to come and sit a while with me? Jesus says, "I will never leave you or forsake you". He is never too busy to come to me like some others. When I turn to Jesus in my weakness; He lifts me up on His shoulders like a loving father with their little one at a parade. Then I can be more than I ever could have been on my own. He enables me to "stand on impossible mountains that enter my life and still the stormy seas that so frequently trouble my life. I wonder if others see Jesus in this song the way I do? I hope so!
Jean McBride I do to

I am an atheist yet this still gives me the chills and goosebumps.
That's how good this is.
A greater power who loves you dearly, made you. You got chills because you responded to this song emotionally.. and only God can make you feel that way. There is a hole in all of our hearts, that only God can fill. A God-shaped hole! :c))

It was more widely accepted around the 3rd century (300 BC-201 BC) The idea that the Earth floated in space was concocted circa 500 BC. Note: time was “labeled” differently back then. for example, year 3000, year 420, year 69, year 0, year 1, year 2… and so on.
Job 26:7: “. . .He [God] hangs the earth on nothing” The book of Job was supposedly written at 2100 BC.
Proverbs 8:27: “. . .when He drew a circle on the face of the deep. . .” Proverbs was possibly written between 970 and 686 BC
Isaiah 40:22: “it is He who sits above the circles of the earth. . .” Isaiah was written between 739 and 680 BC.
This one doesn’t pertain to cosmology, but it refers to divine revelation nonetheless. So you know how the Euphrates River is drying up? Well, guess what? People in the Bible are saying: “Been there, done that.” Read on to learn more.
Isaiah 11:15 “The Lord will dry up the gulf of the Egyptian sea; with a scorching wind he will sweep his hand over the Euphrates River. He will break it up into seven streams so that anyone can cross over in sandals.”
Revelation 16:12 “The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East.”
How did they know about this? You tell me, my fellow Zoomerz.
*NOW FOR EVIDENCE OUTSIDE OF THE BIBLE*
The Holy Spirit exists. I was suicidal for 9-ish months, but then I read John 3:16, and poof- the big sad went away in one night.
Also, look up John Gabbana's (boonk gang) testimony. Dude did a lot of wacky stuff. He's changed now.
Check out “Delafé Testimonies.” They got some good stuff as well
*YOU CANNOT DENY THE WORK GOD DOES IN PEOPLE’S LIVES*
also, the soul exists. someone i know (i won't say who-privacy reasons) saw their soul leaving their body. like pulling off a band-aid, except it doesn't hurt.
*There are also non-Christian sources who have confirmed the existence and divinity of Jesus, some of which were hostile towards Christianity, such as:*
Thallus (52 AD), who said Jesus lived, was crucified, and confirmed the darkness and earthquake that followed Christ’s crucifixion;
Tacitus (56-120 AD), who called the followers of Christ “Christians,” confirmed that Jesus was crucified under Pontus Pilate’s command;
Talmud (400-700 AD), confirmed that the disciples were martyred for their faith, and confirmed Jesus was executed the day before the Passover, and said Jesus had “magical” powers;
Pliny the Younger (61-113 AD), who said that the Christians thought Jesus was/is God in the Flesh (God the Son);
Phlegon (80-140 AD), who said Jesus had the ability to predict the future, and confirmed that Jesus was crucified during Caesar’s reign, confirmed Jesus rose from the dead, and confirmed He showed His wounds to confirm He was crucified;
Celcus (175 AD), who said Jesus was born of a virgin, said His father is a carpenter, and confirmed Jesus had miraculous powers;
(See cold-case Christianity for more details)
Here’s the physical evidence of Jesus and His Resurrection:
1) No persecution would have started if He hadn’t come back (even the disciples thought Jesus would never make the ultimate comeback)
2) The Roman soldiers would have paid with their lives if they failed at their jobs
3) there was a 2-4 ton rock that 11-12 guys would have to move (The disciples deserted Him, remember? They didn’t have any help. Everyone said, “Crucify Him!” major L to those opposed to Jesus)
4) there was a Roman seal which was a metal pin that sealed the tomb stone (they would have to break that off; there were well-trained Roman guards there as well).
5) Stealing the Jesus’s body isn’t something the disciples would do (besides Judas. Although he hung himself after feeling remorse for betraying Jesus).
6) the disciples wouldn’t die for what they knew would be a lie. (The lie being Jesus never made the ultimate comeback. They were called to not be liars. I mean, they hung out with the Son of God/God in the flesh. Come on, now).
faith, science, and reason, people (as we all know them today, and as it was before all those things were tarnished)
hell was never meant for us, my fellow youtube user. it was for the devil and his squad, and God gave us the Way out of there since we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.

I was 5 years old when I lost my grandmother to cancer. This was her favourite song and we played it at her funeral. Even to this day as I’m 18 I turn back to this song when I’m stressed or depressed because it makes me feel like I right back there in her supportive arms.
Damon Goodyer I’m so sorry

I love your voice. 😊 Keep singing. You raise me up in stormy weather. I'm strong when I hear you sing.
@Leslums I’m honored to have the kind of support you show me. How are you today?
Praying for our nation during this trying time. I'm dying, and thru it all, the angels and our Lord have been beside me. No Earthly presence has held my nhand or carried me. GOD HAS
Lori, I truly hope this week finds you in a better place. But I also am certain I live in your place as well. Music can be extremely healing ❤
And yes,,,,,, they are ALWAYS with you.
May God continue to comfort you and hold you in His loving hands! I am praying for you to have peace, maybe even be able to forgive those who left you alone and did bad things to you.
Obviously I don''t know your exact situation, but possibly it helps to speak to somebody from your local church about it.
Amen our king is great
Lori, I’m saddened that you are dying. We all will die too. This is not our home. Our home is
in Heaven with our Lord, our redeemer and Saviour. Our life here on earth is short and the meaning of
life is to follow Him and await patiently until He calls us home. In Heaven there is no illness, sorrow,
nor tribulations but joy to be with our God. Rejoice in the Lord and know that He loves you more
than any person can here on earth. Even if we have lots of friends, married with children, and have parents,
no one can replace God. He walks with us daily and when we are going through pain, depression, illnesses, etc.
He is the only one that will never abandon you, He will walk with you daily, hold your hand, and he is carrying
you right now. No one on earth will love you like He does and He will never disappoint you. When each of us
die, that journey is undertaken with Him alone. If you have God with you, you realize you are not alone.
I will keep you in my prayers, so here on earth I’m your friend. I hope this consoles you.
I'm disabled my sister protects me this is my song for her I love you sis for your love towards me
You are so lucky to have a loving caring sister who will care and look after you God Bless you both
My little Brother loved this song and found such encouragement in it. Now he’s in Heaven, and I’m here listening for that same encouragement he sought. This song is absolutely beautiful! If anyone should happen to read this, I want you to know that I know it’s been a long, hard couple of years. And I want you to know that you are loved! I’m praying for everyone of my fellow human beings! ♥️ May God bless you and your families!
your words is a warm spring wind touched my heart.
Thank you so much.🌹 I'm sorry for your loss of your brother💔 but you will see him again one day in Heaven I know. I wish you God's many blessings in return! And a happy New Year.
🙏💙🌟💙🙏
@@cindy.j123 🥰 Thank you Miss Cindy. I truly believe that too. 🥳 Happy New Year! 🎊
Thank you may God bless you and your family to sorry for your loss. happy new year
Thank you for your kind words I love you. God bless you❤🙏
A Soul Reviving song. This song just came to my mind this morning and caused me to have s flashback over all I have been through this 2024.
In all of these, I am not broken because God's gat my back.
To anyone going through any form of storm, cast your Burden on the Lord Jesus Christ, He's surely there to see you through. 🙏
thank you God, for raising me up through all the hard times ❤
God didn't do shit. You did it yourself. Don't pretend like he physically helped you at all
Daniel Gartavel God isn't incredible, the medicine and doctors that saved your life are. Prayers are worthless
amen😇💯
+Sargent4ever - Just because you're mad at Him, doesn't mean He doesn't exist
Oh, shut the fuck up - doctors save peoples' lives - NOT GOD!
I'm losing my child. He has also raised me up. God please welcome him.
I’m so truly sorry🙏🏽
That’s a pain I cannot begin to imagine. I’m so very sorry.
God bless you.
So sorry…
@MikeC95114 England
Jesus has raised me up more times than I can count on my 66 years on this earth.
I as well. We have an awesome God.
Me too, just the as you... Thanks God! He is always there when i needed..
As a widowed, i fall down many times than i can count, God raised me up... God is great!!!
Lmao. I grew out of my imaginary friend when I was about 8.
@Josh winslow Groban its my pleasure, if i ever help you in some way... to go on,,,, to raise up again, God is great!!!
Keď to počúvam,prosím Boha aby ma zbavil hrozných bolestí.
Ďakujem Josh. Si anjel. Boh ti pomáhaj do peknej práce.
My mother passed in 2017 and years before she asked for us to play this song and it was the most heartbreaking song, still can’t listen without bawling like a big ol baby Jan. 30, 2023
My condolences on your loss. You clearly had a great relationship with your mother. That makes you very fortunate.
I know the feeling. I lost my daughter & she's the one who bought me this cd
@@ronaldmorrow6041 I’m so sorry. It’s worse losing a child. My heart and prayers go out to you and yours
@@michaelcollins8328 We had a great relationship. She was the best person I’ve ever met. She would do anything for anybody. Thank you for your comment.
@@bridgetackerman8512 Then you were very fortunate. My mother was a very mean person who took delight in telling me and my brother we were not wanted. When she died, neither of us went to her funeral because we did not care what happened to her.
This was played at my grandpas funeral, what a blessing to hear this now. Makes me feel stronger, praying for everyone listening to this due to pain and loss.
I lost my grandad a couple months ago to pneumonia and I know your pain try to stay stong and don't give up theirs always hope and if you need someone to talk to I'm here 😁👍🏼stay strong I have faith in you 💪🏼have a good day
@RANA RAYYAN MOHAMMAD RANA RAYYAN MOHAMMAD awww I'm so sorry to hear that my friend just try your best to keep pushing through it man I have faith in you
@RANA RAYYAN MOHAMMAD RANA RAYYAN MOHAMMAD no problem
It's 2023 and it's definitely one of the best songs of all time, a total masterpiece. It never gets old..
Who's still listening to this amazing 👏 😍 🙌 ✨️ ❤️ song in December, 2024. This song absolutely resonated with me because if it wasn't for God I would nit be where I am today. Now I have been following my spiritual calling for almost 1 year and recently started my own U-tube channel 3 months ago to share my story as the main character and my spiritual gifts 🎁 🙏 and talents with the world 🌎 ❤️ ✨️. I am now giving back my spiritual gifts 🎁 ❤️ ✨️ and talents back to God for his purpose ❤️ 😇❤️🔥💫🙏.
Happy Holidays! This is a truly uplifting song.
We played this song at my mother's funeral a couple of weeks ago. I just turned 40 six days before she passed. I cried like a baby. Josh Groban's voice can pull emotion out of you that you never thought possible. I'll always be a fan.
I miss my mom. 😢
😭😭😭
I’m sorry for your loss ❤
I'm sorry for your loss❤
Mi dispiace per tua mamma😢❤
I miss my mother too 😢 3 yes still hurts. Jesus promised that he go to prepare a play. That where here he is we may be there also. He tell us to Let not our heart be troubled. That we believe in God believe also in him. No man come to the Father but by Jesus he is the way the truth and the life. Paul said to be absent from the body is to be present we with the lord. Talk to Jesus he loves you . He got you.❤❤❤❤❤😊
AS LOUD AS I CAN POSSIBLY SING... “YOU RAISE ME UP” because he does, and always will God bless you all💙
I lost my earthly father to the cancer I battle,my son to crime,my sister too.The Lord has carried me
God bless you.
It is well my dear,,,God is with you always...
Stay strong! His Grace is sufficient
@@mkyamakya pray for me
You carried yourself. There is no god. He's a remnant of an infantile human experience.
Это песня про ангела-хранителя. Он всегда поддерживает в трудные минуты. И несёт тебя на плечах, когда бы сам не можешь идти
What an uplifting song laying in my hospital bed waiting for an emergency surgery .i am so impressed with all the hospital staff working here so they can save lives. The Coronavirus has elevated us to fully respect how hard they have to work in these crazy times. It’s like someone hit the slow motion button of life.
I hope your surgery goes well ❤️
Prayers & Healing to Jesus for You & Your Family. Jesus & I Love You🙏
Amen.🙏
Amen
I pray for your perfect healing in the same of Jesus Christ. Amen
I sadly lost my baby sister October 22, 2016. this was our favorite song we sang together, because we lost our mother at a young age and we said we'd always be there for each other. I am on my own now with my 2 daughters that I need to be strong for. I find comfort knowing my mom and sister have been reunited in the spirit world.
Linsey Ewenin My ❤ goes out to you. I have a sister and my Mother is still alive and we're very close to one another. I don't know what I would do if I lost either of them. Keep close to your two little girls for as long as you can, carrying on the tradition of singing this great song with them, and share with them your memories of their Grandmother and Auntie. They'll love you for it. Take care of yourself!
Linsey Ewenin I'm so very sorry for your loss 😔😔
Linsey Ewenin I feel bad for you
IQvest Group it get better over time but you never really heal who have to hold on to the good times and memories. I went through a lot went to heavy drinking and doing bad stuff trying to rid myself and did everything I could to fill the hole in my heart lots of darkness in the old heart has taken me a while to learn and not be upset have to think they we're all in pain and now has I get older I going health pain but I gotten a lot better. I'm here if you or anyone needs someone to talk to..
Linsey Ewenin My condolences.
Rest in peace, Mum. Gone to soon but your legacy lives forever.
