The Mountain

(Capo 3) D G/D D G/D D G/D D G/D
I wanna build a house upon this mountain
Way up high where the peaceful waters flow
To quench my thirsty soul
Upon the mountain
I can see for miles upon this mountain
And troubles seem so small they almost disappear
Lord, I love it here
Upon on the mountain
My faith is strengthened by all that I see
You make it easy for me to believe
Up on the mountain
Oh, up on the mountain
I would love to live upon this mountain
And keep the pain of living life so far away
But, I know I can't stay
Oh, up on the mountain
I said I'd go, Lord, where ever You lead
#
For where You are is where I most wanna be
And I can tell we're headed for the valley, Yes we are
My faith is strengthened by all that I've seen
#
So, Lord, help me remember what You've shown me
Up on the mountain, Yeah!
You bring me up here on the mountain
For me to rest and learn and grow
I see the truth up on the mountain
And I carry it to the world far below
So, as I go down to the valley
Knowin that You will go with me
#
This is my prayer Lord: Help me to remember what You've shown me
s/
Up on the mountain, Up on the mountain
I cherish these times up on the mountain
But I can leave this place because I know
Someday You'll take me home
To live forever
Upon the mountain
Upon the mountain
Way up on the mountain
(repeat and fade)
