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 flows with the water of life

I fell down on my knees at the foot of this mountain

I cried, "O Lord what must I do?"

I want to climb this mountain, I want to drink from this mountain

That flows so clean in my view

Then I heard a sweet voice from the top of this mountain

Saying, "Child put your hand in mine

I started climbing slowly watch your steps at the edges

And take one step at a time

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 ended

I'm nearing the top and you ought to 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
