I don't know what it's called, but that song with the refrain "You lift me up, so I can climb a mountain". The lyrics are cheesy, the boy band version is awful, but I heard a professional singer sing it solo at a church wedding a few years ago and just burst into tears.

Garden of Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar.

Jerusalem sung by Jessye Norman.

Nothing compares 2 U by Sinead O'Connor.

Thank you so much for mentioning the Linda Eder song. It definitely qualifies as hauntingly beautiful. I can't stop crying now. Thank you. For what it's worth, if any of the rest of you haven't heard it I recommend that you do. It's on YouTube
