Lyrics
When the mountain is so tall
And I can't see any way at all to get around it
The river's running wide and strong
And I know deep in my heart, I'm gonna have to cross it
When both my knees are bruised
From the ground that I've been praying on
When it feels like every shred of hope is gone
God keeps me keeping on
Looking down this path I'm on
There's something big standing in my way
I keep inching forward
Into the big dark shadow that it makes
The mammoth leaves me breathless
It's face is jagged and steep
If I'm gonna make it through this
I'm gonna have to dig down deep
When the mountain is so tall
And I can't see any way at all to get around it
The river's running wide and strong
And I know deep in my heart, I'm gonna have to cross it
When both my knees are bruised
From the ground that I've been praying on
When it feels like every shred of hope is gone
God keeps me keeping on
At times when I can't walk no more
'Cause both my legs are beat , and feel like rubber
I find the strength, keep pushing through
Look real close, and you might see some stubborn
It's just the way God made me
I know my life is in His hands
Until He tells me different, I'm gonna give it all I have
When the mountain is so tall
And I can't see any way at all to get around it
The river's running wide and strong
And I know deep in my heart, I'm gonna have to cross it
When both my knees are bruised
From the ground that I've been praying on
When it feels like every shred of hope is gone
God keeps me keeping on
The monster out ahead sure scares me
I think of all the things that might be
And I don't have a clue where I begin
Gonna take a breath, keep it together
Take a step and then another
'Cause I don't have it in me to give in
When the mountain is so tall
And I can't see any way at all to get around it
The river's running wide and strong
And I know deep in my heart, I'm gonna have to cross it
When both my knees are bruised
From the ground that I've been praying on
When it feels like every shred of hope is gone
'Cause the dark is always deepest before the dawn
God keeps me keeping on
Keep keepin' on
