Hello guys,
Welcome to another week of the hive open mic. I'm glad to be here and I trust you all are doing great. This week's entries are really amazing, as performances are made in relation to the theme, "Passion for Art".
Music for me is the "universal language of mankind" because it is possible to evoke deep emotions, thoughts, and memories. Barriers of culture and language are not really a thing when it has to do with the art of music. The phrase "passion for art" signifies the emotional intensity, deep commitment, and expressive capability that an artist invests in their work. Music, being one of the most emotive forms of art, is a powerful conduit for conveying this passion.
Waking up this morning, I felt this song in my spirit "You raised me up" by Josh Groban. Though this song, from my research, was originally composed by Secret Garden but was made popular by Josh Groban. I felt uplifted by the song so I opted to make it my choice of presentation for the week.
The major structure of art in this song from my perspective is the way the melody is uplifting, the harmony sophisticated and warm and the lyrics are matchlessly deep and emotional.
I sincerely hope and believe that your heart is blessed by this presentation of mine and you find a reason to be inspired and uplifted by this song. Thanks for having me.
Below are some of the lyrics of the song
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….
