I song I had chosen is You raise me up by Goerge Groban...

And here are the lyrics...

You Raise Me Up

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.

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.

Some of you may wonder why I chose this song. Maybe some of you may think like this. Example:"Hey come on! It is the new school! Why choose this kind of song? So boring!" Okay, well, I chose this song to remind you who brought you up/raise you up. It is of course your parents, right? Of course! Now let me say that I myself am a catholic, so let me share my thoughts religiously. God is the Lord who raise you up, so I can say that our parents are Gods, who helped us through tough times "walk on stormy seas". As being "God's" "desciples", we followed and listened to him which help us grow "stronger". This song also reminds us that we should thank our "raisers" for being there for us when we needed them. Well, so this is the same as thanking the Lord, Jesus Christ, for sacrificing himself because he loved us. All the times we have been through, Kingdegarten, Primary school, Pain, Exams, our parents were always there for us. Now that we are independent, who are we going to repay our parents.
