There are days I get discouraged
In this world of pain and woe
There are times that I forget
That this is really not my home
But I try to view the valleys
As just builders of my Faith
And I set my sights on higher things
And I am not afraid

I'm climbing up the mountain
But I do not climb alone
There's a world of fellow travelers
All around to cheer me on
Step by step I'm more determined
I will make it all the way
I'm climbing up the mountain
And I'll reach the top someday

I can feel the thrill of mercy
With each hеartache that I face
For the hardеr that I climb
Is the sweeter victory tastes
And although my feet are weary
And my back is aching so
I can hear the saints all cheering
Just a few more miles to go
