Josh Groban helped make the powerful song popular by lending his operatic voice to it. But countless other artists have covered the song over the years, too.
"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"
Today, we're hearing the song in an entirely new way.

Until you come and sit awhile with me"
