I can see it from here, Lord;
There's a mountain out there,
But I can't seem to climb it
'Cause there are clouds everywhere...
I can see it from here. Lord;
It is awesome and steep -
I am trying to climb, Lord;
Hold me close in Thy keep...
I can see it from here, Lord;
There's a mountain out there -
I keep trying to climb, Lord;
Help me do what's my share...
I can see it from here, Lord;
It is awesome and steep -
I'm still trying to climb, Lord,
And I'm starting to weep...
I can see it from here, Lord;
I'm on that mountain out there -
I am climbing at last, Lord,
And I offer a prayer ...
I can see it from here, Lord;
It is awesome and steep -
Oh please help me, Good Shepherd,
I am one of Thy Sheep!
