You Raised Me Up by Josh Groban has crossed over. It's originally a Christian song but you will be hearing this song now in your radios being played in secular radio stations. It was even sang in Ellen Degeneres show.
Josh Groban is probably one of the most famous music artist both in the Christian and secular worlds. His albums sold millions of copies around the globe.
The first time I heard this song just a couple of months ago when my wife a high school teacher was preparing and studying this song for their graduation. Then the president of our Convention also sang this song in our Convention meeting.
So if you are a fan of Josh Groban, you should not be missing this song.

This is one of my favourite song. I was inspired to spend time to compose
the chords despite on my hectic schedules. And to all the “BISDAK†para ni
ninyo Baaay. If you have any corrections or comments please don’t hesitate
to email me. I hope you've enjoyed playing the music!
I would like to dedicate this song to all the Filos kababayan.
