I wanna build a house upon this mountain
D G/D D G/D
Way up high where the peaceful waters flow
Gmaj7 Em7
To quench my thirsty soul
D G/D D G/D
Upon the mountain

I can see for miles upon this mountain

And troubles seem so small they almost disappear

Upon on the mountain

And keep the pain of living life so far away

This is my prayer Lord: Help me to remember what You’ve shown me

Up on the mountain, Up on the mountain

I cherish these times up on the mountain

But I can leave this place because I know

Someday You’ll take me home
To live forever

Upon the mountain

Upon the mountain
