The Mountain

I stand on the Mountain,
    Looking up, Looking 'round.
You're still at the bottom.
     One step up, One step down.
The view from up here,
The pathway's so clear,
     But you cannot see which way to go.


I'm looking at you.
     You're my friend, take my hand.
I traveled this pathway,
     So can you, follow through.
I know you can't see,
Everything you can be,
     Just trust me and follow my lead.


I stand on the mountain,
With heaven's gates wide open,
     But heaven wouldn't be here if you weren't here too.
I've already come to the top,
But I'm more alone than I thought.
     I turn around, come back down.
     Take your hand, you're my friend.
Let's go together back to God.




We all find God in different ways.
     We all climb that mountain
     On such different days.
But when we get to the top,
And see the path that we trod,
     We must go back down,
     And help others get there now.
