Distant Mountain

Lewis wrote of the Shadowlands

The dark place before the light began

David sang of the valley of the shadow of death

The doubts and darkness feel like all that's left

There's a view of a distant mountain

And though I'm full of doubt

I know, someday, I will see you there

View of a distant mountain

And though I'm full of doubt

I know, someday, I will see you there

Bunyan wrote of the slough of despair

A man weighed down with a burden of care

Nietzsche wrote of the low that follows the high

Triumph that leads you high and dry

There's a view of a distant mountain

And though I'm full of doubt

I know, someday, I will meet you there

View of a distant mountain

And though I'm full of doubt

I know, someday, I will meet you there

Keep your eyes on me

Keep my eyes on you

As one foot forward

I struggle through

There's a view of a distant mountain

And though I'm full of doubt

I know, someday, I will see you there

View of a distant mountain

And though I'm full of doubt

I know, someday, I will see you there
