THE GREAT HIGH MOUNTAIN

                    I

ONCE I STOOD AT THE FAST OF A GREAT HIGH MOUNTAIN
THAT I WANTED SO MUCH TO CLIMB
AND ON TOP OF THIS MOUNTAIN IS A BEAUTIFUL FOUNTAIN
THAT FLOWS WITH THE WATER OF LIFE.

                     II

I FELL DOWN ON MY KNEES AT THE FAST OF THIS MOUNTAIN
I CRIED, "O LORD WHAT MUST I DO?
I WANT TO CLIMB THIS MOUNTAIN AND DRINK FROM THIS FOUNTAIN
THAT FLOWS SO CLEAN IN MY VIEW.

                     III

THEN I HEARD A SWEET VOICE FROM THE TOP OF THIS MOUNTAIN
SAYING, "CHILD PUT YOUR HAND IN MINE
START CLIMBING SLOWLY WATCH YOUR STEPS AS YOU CLIMB
AND TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME.

                        IV

I STARTED CLIMBING UPWARD TAKING ONE STEP AT A TIME
THE HIGHER I GOT THE HARDER I CLIMBED
I'M STILL CLIMBING UPWARD AND MY JOURNEY'S ALMOST THROUGH
I'M NEARING THE TOP AND YOU OUGHT TO SEE THE VIEW.

                       V

OH THE WATER FLOWS SO FREE THERE'S ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU FREE
SO FRIEND IF YOU'RE THIRSTY CLIMB THIS MOUNTAIN WITH ME.
