ON THE MOUNTAINTOP

Today I said, "I love You, Lord,
please bless this day You've given.
I thank You for the blessings, Lord,
and all the joys of living."

"My cup is full to overflow,
You've been so good to me.
I thank You for Your gift of love
to us at Calvary."

Before the day drew to an end
my heart had known much pain.
From the mountain top where I had been
through the valley once again.

I'll not ask why, just simply trust
in him to lead the way.
It must be best for me, I know,
so close to Him I'll stay.

"A little more," I hear His voice,
"My child keep sweet and pray,
and soon you'll know the joy you had
on the mountain top today."
