Great High Mountain

Lyrics

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
