VERSE ONE
Born in the heat of a desert
My mother died givin' me life
Despised and disliked by my Father,
Blamed for the loss of his wife.
You know, Lord, I've been in a prison,
For something that I've never done;
It's been one hill after another,
And I've climbed them Lord,one by one.
But this time,You gave me a mountain,
A mountain I may never climb;
it isn't a hill any longer,
You gave me a mountain this time.
STRUM THE ?C? TO GET INTO THE VERSE
My Woman got tired of the hardship
Tired of the grief and the strife
tired of workin' for nothin'
Tired of bein' my wife
She took my one ray of sunshine
She took my pride and my joy
She took my reason for living
She took my small baby boy
CHORUS
And this time, You gave me a mountain
A mountain I may never climb;
it isn't a hill any longer,
You gave me a mountain this time.
