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. (source: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/westlife/youraisemeup.html)

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!
PS: The sentence is from the song "You Raise Me Up":
"You Raise Me Up"

When troubles come and my heart burdened beThen I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me.
