I’ve been climbing my whole life
And I’m only at the bottom of the mountain,
At the bottom of the mountain
Rising up from my feet in the daylight
Rising up into the clouds and out of my sight
Is the height of that mountain
Well my hands cannot reach it
And my mind can’t comprehend it
But my soul is gonna get there one day
No, my hands cannot reach it
And my mind can’t comprehend it
But my soul is gonna get there one day
Lord, these shoes are gonna need some help
So we can make it to the top of the mountain
To the top of your mountain
Many feet have gone before us
With a habit of faith and courage
They’ll meet us at the road’s end
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Yes, yes, I think I will
Oh yes, I know we will
Yes, yes, I know we will
Oh yeah, I know we…
I’ve been climbing my whole life
And I’m only at the bottom of the mountain
At the bottom of the mountain
All along this road when it feels so far to the top
You say, “Just hold on to the mountain.”
REPEAT CHORUS (X2)
TAG:
Well my soul (my soul) is gonna get there one day
