Rough Side of the Moutain
Rev. F.C. Barnes
Oh Lord, I'm strivin'
Tryin' to make it through this barren land
But as I go from day to day
I can hear my Savior say
"Trust me child, come on and hold my hand"
… I'm comin' up, on the rough side of the mountain
I must hold to God, His powerful hand
I'm comin' up, on the rough side of the mountain
I'm doin' my best to make it in
… I'm comin' up Lord, I'm comin' up Lord
Although my burdens
Sometime they press me down
But if I can only keep this faith
I'll have strength just to run this race
I'm lookin', I'm lookin', for my starry crown
… I'm comin' up, on the rough side of the mountain
I must hold to God, His powerful hand
I'm comin' up, on the rough side of the mountain
I'm doin' my best to make it in
… This old race, will soon be over
There'll be no more race for me to run
And I will stand before God's throne
All my heartaches will be gone
I'll hear my Savior say, "welcome home"
… I'm coming up
On the roughside of the mountain
I must hold on to God his powerful hand
I'm coming up, on the roughside of the mountain
I'm doing my best to make it in
… I'm coming up
On the roughside of the mountain
I must hold on to God his powerful hand
I'm coming up, on the roughside of the mountain
I'm doing my best to make it in
