Up to the Mountain (MLK Song)
|
|
I went up to the mountain
|
Because you asked me to
|
Up over the clouds
|
Where the sky was blue
|
I could see all around me
|
Every, Everywhere
|
I could see all around me
|
Everywhere
|
|
Sometimes I feel like
|
I've never been nothing but tired
|
And I'll be working
|
Till the day I expire
|
Sometimes I lay down
|
No more can I do
|
But then I go on again
|
Because you asked me to
|
|
Some days I look down
|
Afraid I will fall
|
And though the sun shines
|
I see nothing at all
|
Then I hear your sweet voice
|
Come and then go
|
Telling me softly
|
You love me so
|
|
The peaceful valley
|
Just over the mountain
|
The peaceful valley
|
Few come to know
|
I may never get there
|
Ever in this lifetime
|
But sooner or later
|
It's there I will go
|
Sooner or later
|
It's there I will go
|
