You gotta climb to scale the mountain
You gotta climb to reach the top
You gotta climb to see the splendor
You gotta climb climb climb don't you stop
verse 1
Well the path is steep where it leads upward
The way is rough narrow too
But every step brings you higher
Until that mountain peak will come in view
Refrain
You gotta climb to scale the mountain
You gotta climb to reach the top
You gotta climb to see the splendor
You gotta climb climb climb don't you stop
verse 2
Don't you give up cause you're weary
You can't expect an easy way
Downward path leads to nowhere
You gotta climb climb climb everyday
Refrain
You gotta climb to scale the mountain
You gotta climb to reach the top
You gotta climb to see the splendor
You gotta climb climb climb don't you stop
verse 3
When you arrive at top of your mountain
You'll be glad that you struggled on
If you have all your gold around you
The struggle of the climb all gone
Refrain
You gotta climb to scale the mountain
You gotta climb to reach the top
You gotta climb to see the splendor
You gotta climb climb climb don't you stop
