When this world becomes a burden I can bear no more...
I need to climb to the mountaintop and praise the Lord
Lyrics
I need to climb to the mountain top and praise the Lord
I need to raise my face to heaven, where the eagles soar
When this world becomes a burden I can bear no more
I need to climb to the mountain top and praise the Lord
My home is in the valley in a city by the bay
but my heart longs for the mountains at the start of each new day
As I bow my head to pray my soul is longing to be free
to glide above the treetops on a peaceful mountain breeze
I need to climb to the mountain top and praise the Lord
I need to raise my face to heaven, where the eagles soar
When this world becomes a burden I can bear no more
I need to climb to the mountain top and praise the Lord
When my spirit has grown heavy and my heart can find no rest
I long to leave behind this valley for the snowy mountain's crest
As I walk a misty pathway in that magic mountain land
I can almost feel my Master reaching out to take my hand
I need to climb to the mountain top and praise the Lord
I need to raise my face to heaven, where the eagles soar
When this world becomes a burden I can bear no more
I need to climb to the mountain top and praise the Lord
I am overcome with wonder as my heart cries out in praise
I give thanks for starlit nights and the glory of each day
I praise Him for my family, my children and my wife
and I praise God for mountain's majesty, the glory of my life
I need to climb to the mountain top and praise the Lord
I need to raise my face to heaven, where the eagles soar
When this world becomes a burden I can bear no more
I need to climb to the mountain top and praise the Lord
