The ClimbThe Climb
 Majestic
and mighty, lofty and proud
Like
a challenge before me the peak shouts out loud
My eyes
gaze to the top, I’m shaking in fear
How can I
ever get there…from here?
I stand at
the crossroads in the valley below
Afraid to
look back, yet frightened to go
If I take
the first step can I ever return
Will I
regret crossing the bridges I’ll burn?
The heights
of the mountain, they stir my soul
But I’m
terrified of the precipice below
This is
daunting Lord, how can I possibly climb
Do I have
enough strength? Will I have enough time?
Off through
the valley of fear I go
‘Til I
reach the foothills far below
The
mountain I’ll climb still looms above
Excitement
abounds, I’m wooed by this Love.
My foot
grips the first rocky slope
Glory and
wonder fill my heart with new hope
With the
Lord as my guide I will scale this peak
In His
strength I will climb, His glories I seek.
It seems a
new first lies beyond every turn
My heart is
so filled, how much can I learn
What
happened to my fears, they’re starting to subside
I feel like
I’m living for the very first time.
And up I
go, climbing higher still
Please keep
me on the path of Your perfect will
I gaze down
to the valley never wanting to descend
This
mountain now has become my friend.
Yet I know
I still have far to go
I welcome
the challenge, I want to grow
Lord be my
side with every step I take
Never leave
me, lead me for your sake.
Precious
stones collected along the way
Will be
placed in my crown on that glorious day
When You
brush away every tear I cried
And take my
hand as Your beautiful bride.
Still I
climb this mountain striving for the top
Grant me
perseverance, may I never stop
I long for
the day I rest in Your perfect peace
And dance
with You on this mountain peak.
This trek
is long but worth the strife
For at
journey’s end You grant new life
Soon with
You I’ll stand above the valley laid bare
Whispering,
“How did I ever get here…from there?”
