I wanna build a house upon this mountain
Way up high where the peaceful waters flow
To quench my thirsty soul
Upon the mountain
I can see for miles upon this mountain
And troubles seem so small they almost disappear
Lord, I love it here
Upon on the mountain
My faith is strengthened by all that I see
You make it easy for me to believe
Up on the mountain
Oh, up on the mountain
I would love to live upon this mountain
And keep the pain of living life so far away
But, I know I can't stay
Oh, up on the mountain
I said I'd go, Lord, where ever You lead
For where You are is where I most wanna be
And I can tell we're headed for the valley, Yes we are
My faith is strengthened by all that I've seen
So, Lord, help me remember what You've shown me
Up on the mountain, Yeah!
You bring me up here on the mountain
For me to rest and learn and grow
I see the truth up on the mountain
And I carry it to the world far below
So, as I go down to the valley
Knowin that You will go with me
This is my prayer Lord: Help me to remember what You've shown me
Up on the mountain, Up on the mountain
I cherish these times up on the mountain
But I can leave this place because I know
Someday You'll take me home
To live forever
Upon the mountain
Upon the mountain
Way up on the mountain
