Great High Mountain
Once I stood at the foot
Of a great high mountain
That I wanted so much to climb
and on top of this mountain was a beautiful fountain
That flowed with the waters of Life.
I fell down on my knees
At the foot of this mountain
I cried, Oh Lord, what must I do
I want to climb on this mountain
I want to drink from this fountain
thats flowing so clear to my view.
When I heard a sweet voice
From the top of this mountain
Saying, Child put your hands in mine
Start climbing slowly, watch yourself at the edges
and take one step at a time.
I started climbing upwards
takin one step at a time
the higher I got the harder I climbed
I'm still climbing upwards
and my journey almost empty
I'm nearin' the top and all can see the view
Oh, the water flows so freely
There's enough to make you free
So friend if you're thirsty
Climb this mountain with me
Of a great high mountain
That I wanted so much to climb
and on top of this mountain was a beautiful fountain
That flowed with the waters of Life.
I fell down on my knees
At the foot of this mountain
I cried, Oh Lord, what must I do
I want to climb on this mountain
I want to drink from this fountain
thats flowing so clear to my view.
When I heard a sweet voice
From the top of this mountain
Saying, Child put your hands in mine
Start climbing slowly, watch yourself at the edges
and take one step at a time.
I started climbing upwards
takin one step at a time
the higher I got the harder I climbed
I'm still climbing upwards
and my journey almost empty
I'm nearin' the top and all can see the view
Oh, the water flows so freely
There's enough to make you free
So friend if you're thirsty
Climb this mountain with me
