Dear all,

I think You Raise Me Up would be a nice song.

Singing English songs can improve our English. This song is sung by Deng Ziqi, which has been many people’s favorite for years. I also like this s ong because it can often make me full of courage and energy. When I listen to it, I feel myself standing on mountains.

It’s possible for us to meet with problems and failure in life. When that happens, you can listen to the song. It can cheer you up and encourage you to face any trouble bravely. Just as Deng Ziqi sings, “You raise me up to more than I can be.”
