I will get over
I'll make it there
There's a rock in the road
In a ditch on the side
And a steep hill that must be climbed
It's a big heavy load
And it measures too wide
And a destination that's hard to find
I will get over
I'll make it there
There's just no getting 'round it
There's trouble out there
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Til I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
There's a stop sign ahead
And it's slippery when wet
And a detour at every turn
There's a narrowing bridge
And a long threatening ridge
And a big-old landslide that bars return, but
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
'Til that poor day I find
That nobody's there
I will get over
There's a wreck on the right
And it's getting on night
And the headlights, they won't turn on
Ah, my brakes have been worn
Bumper's been torn
And my pride and patience are all but gone
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Til I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air (ooh, I'm gonna make it)
I will get over
I'll make it there
I will get over (I will get over)
I will get over (I will get over)
I will get over
