It's the Climb

It’s the climb that makes the difference Though the journey’s yet far to go, A beam of light shines through the tunnel Freedom cry, that’s all there is to know. I can almost see it, and my heart pounds, And skip a beat. Drown the voices negative Echo, fast and long brush through your mind. Hurdle after hurdle, leaves all your troubles behind This isn’t about how fast I’ll get there Neither about what awaits me then, It’s the climb, and my perseverance to the end One mountain after another, rivers deep And valley’s wide. It’s the climb the Final outcome, when the journey is complete. It’s the climb not the finish, it’s the joy Of reaching to the end. Having overcome Life’s obstacles, the climb ‘twill be worth It all my friend.
