"You Raise Me Up" by Josh Groban
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 lie ! no lie without its hunger;
"ach restless heart beats so imperectly;#ut when you come and I am illed with wonder,
$ometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.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... To more than I can be.

The %arable o the $trong &an
There was a young boy o the name o &icha who li'ed with a master o histrade, stonemasonry , and a ew others training along side him. Though let his
amily, &icha was ne'er lonely or long or the stonemason was a older manand a dear riend to him. (s the years past, &icha)s strength and haste
surpassed those o the other pupils. *ompared to the others, &icha could litboulders greater than temples. $oon, he became the blacksmith)s assistant. The
business and their relationship both thri'ed.#ut the blacksmith grew older and older by the days and soon died, lea'ing
&icha alone. &icha tried to mask his loneliness but the depression soon took
o'er. +is physical strength weakened and the business ell and &icha was nowlet alone and poor.
-ook at this man, a neighbor said. What is wrong with him/+e reuse to speak. +e hides his demons.
0ow a woman, who had good relations with the old stonemason, came intotown and saw &icha sitting in silence. The woman sat ne1t to him on the dirt.
$he placed his hand on his shoulder and said, ( man)s power is not determined
by how many boulders he can empty rom the streets, but how many pebbleshe can mo'e rom his mind.&icha , who elt that God was with this woman, cried or 2 days and 2
nights. (ter he wept, &icha told o his sorrows to the woman. +is mind was setree and at last, his strength returned or his spirit had returned.

&y partner, *ara, and I saw about almost eye!to!eye on the truth7 you need
others to help you. The dierence was that *ara)s interpretation dealt more
with spiritual guidance. Though I thought about it beore, I ne'er really saw the
song in that manner. It was interesting to ind out how one truth can ha'e
dierent meanings to dierent people. I pictured someone in my lie that helped
me when I am down while *ara pictured God. I don)t personally know her
relationship with God, but I do know she was had some ups and downs in her
lie and God has been there to raise her up.
The song itsel was a bit short, but still made its point. It might ha'e been
diicult or someone who hasn)t had a time where they were at a low point in
their li'es. (lso, it would ha'e been a bit easier to relect i the song held a bit
more emotion.
*ara wrote her re!communication as a letter. -etters are great or

the topic to show that they are not alone. Yet, in the beginning, most o us were
unaware about the style the letter was supposed to be in. (ter seeing the

correct way to write a letter, it was still a little diicult because you had to
include why you were it or writing the letter. This style is best or a truth that
speaks to you and that most people identiy by.
&y interpretation was 8ust about ha'ing people help you in general. &yindependent nature stops me rom asking others or help, which leads me to
stress and e'en cause emotional build!up. With *ara)s personality, I know i she
needs something, she)s going to ask, no doubt. $he is independent, but to a
point while I can be too independent at times.
I wrote a myth or my re!communication. It was entertaining and un towrite a story that dealt with my truth. Yet, it was diicult or me to show my
deep truth in my song. I knew what the truth was, but at irst it was 'ery
diicult to con'ey that to others. This style would be recommended or a truth
that is 'ery simple and known to many.

3election
The author o this psalm wrote this as i he has almost been reborn. +e
has gi'en himsel to the -ord, who he describes as dependable, lo'ing, and
upright. The author seems to ha'e been stubborn and 'ery independent
9wonder who that reminds me o: until he ga'e all o his troubles, sins, and
aults to God. Then, he is orgi'en and lets God take the wheel.
In the our translations I chose, one o the dierent translations was about
enemies taking o'er the author. Three o the translations used the word
enemies but chose dierent 'erbs to describe being taken o'er. The Jewish
translation used dierent words altogether. (nother dierence is how they
describe God)s secret and how he shows his co'enant to those who ollow
him. 5ne translation says XThe secret council o the -ord) while the others 8ust
say XThe secret o the -ord). (lso all the translations ha'e a dierent way o
con'eying X(nd God showed his co'enant to them).
"ach translation has a dierent le'el o seriousness to me. The 5rthodo1
Jewish 'ersion being the most mature. #esides the +olman *hristian $tandard
'ersion, the other translations seemed as i the author was asking or
-
8/13/2019 Scroll Project
17/23
orgi'eness in the psalm while the +*$ 'ersion shows the author as already
being orgi'en or his sins and now praising God or his wondrous deeds.
The 5rthodo1 Jewish 'ersion was the most diicult to read and understand. The
style o writing was ar rom modern and this 'ersion used a lot o words that Idid not understand or know such as oye'im,rachamim, and Lera. God)s name is
also changed in this 'ersion, which was Kuite interesting to me. It is put as
+ashem.
&y a'orite translation is the +olman *hristian $tandard 'ersion. I actually
ound it on accident. I meant to search or the 0ew (merican #ible Translationand clicked at a random spot in the list. I like this 'ersion because it is 'ery
simple and I would e'en say more modern than the 0ew (merican #ible
translation. I belie'e that because the language was 'ery understandable, it
was easier to connect with. I also lo'ed this 'ersion)s choice o certain words
and phrases such as XThe distresses o my heart increase) and X#ecause o Yourname, Yahweh, orgi'e my sin, or it is great.)

#eore I wrote the paraphrase, I did not take into consideration how God
does not hold a grudge ater all we ha'e sinned. I it were God, I would be a
little hesitant to orgi'e someone time ater time o sinning. #ut God doesn)t
work like that. It)s as i e'ery time we ask or orgi'eness, he cleans the slateand the past is behind us. $ometimes, though, the past seems to creep up on
me and I ne'er totally orget it. This paraphrase has made me see how this can
negati'ely aect my lie and that I need to permanently lea'e the past in the
pastP
It)s 'ery important that the language is suitable or the reader. You can)te1pect a high school student to connect with language that was used @ billion
years ago or language used or a !year!old. The language can help a reader
truly understand what is being said. I I don)t understand what is written, then
how would I ind the deep truth and what God is trying to con'ey/ You can)t.
You would 8ust see words with no meaning behind them. That is why languageis 'ery important when trying to show a reader a deeper message. You want to
make sure that the reader understood what is being said.

It is 'ery ob'ious that we take the in'ention o the printing press or granted.
This pro8ect could ha'e been completed in less than hal the time i we were
allotted to use a printer. #ut the point o this pro8ect wasn)t 8ust to see that we
don)t properly respect printing, but to show the amount o time, eort, and skill
that went into completing scrolls. I)ll admit, I would ha'e hated to ha'e to write
e'ery single word down, perectly, and painstakingly transcribe it into another
language. Then ha'ing to write all that again about more times. I would ha'e
died. I guess that)s why I was born in a technology!craLed era. Yet, being an
artist, I can only admire their perse'erance and image how the ink lowed on
the scrolls.
I always knew there were dierent ways o looking at the same thing, but
this pro8ect made me realiLe e'en more. We all ha'e dierent e1periences,
emotions, and personal stories or the same things. You can)t e1pect e'eryone

(nother thing I learned through this pro8ect is how important the psalms were
in the past and e'en their importance today. When we pray, we usually ask God
or his blessing. Whether its money, lo'e, happiness, success, the list goes on.
%salms teaches us to want not the things on earth, but God himsel. The authorso psalms show us that the reason we eel alone, depressed, and stressed is
probably because we are ignoring god. When we gi'e him our all by praising his
name and repenting or our aults, we will be cleansed o all troubles in our
hearts. I used to sit and wonder why the book o psalms was so large. 0ow, I
realiLe why. It takes more than a ew chapters to realiLe the great power o the-ord.
This pro8ect was 8ust a big tedious grade in the beginning. 0ow, it has
become a way or me to truly relect on my lie and realiLe how I am li'ing. &ay
my writings inspire whoe'er is reading to do the same.
