I'm gonna climb that mountain
Cross over to the promised land
Yeah I'm gonna climb that mountain
Cross over to the promised land
There's a scarlet fountain
where once the cross did stand

My days are numbered
But there's no sorrow when I sleep
My days are surely numbered
There's no sorrow when I sleep
He comforts those who stay within his keep

Life is filled with mystery
our future's in his hands
And God controls the history
more than we can understand
He lets the devil shake us
just to wake us from our dreams
But he never will forsake us
no matter what it sometimes seems

Well my heart is heavy
But I'm standing on the solid rock
Yeah my heart feels heavy
But I'm standing on the solid rock
The sheep know the shepherd
when they hear their master talk
Ah ha ha

Alright boys take it
Oh yeah
? [Very faint] [Spoken]

Satan is our enemy, darkness is his power
Yeah Satan is our enemy
and darkness is his power
Yeah he roams the streets like a lion
seeking whom next to devour

Misdirection, distraction
are his subtle weapons he could use
Misdirection an' distraction
are subtle weapons he could use
'Cos you can think your hands are sinless
when indifference is what you choose
Yeah that's right, now you do it

Yeah when my working is done
I'm gonna lay my burden down
When my work is done
I'm gonna lay my burden down
I'm gonna leave my troubles
gonna head for higher ground
