Once I Stood Upon a High Mountain Top
Once I Stood Upon A High Mountain Top
I stood upon a mountain top,
weeping boulders tumbling amiss
this sight held me, I could not stop
for loving sky I thought to kiss.
I stood in an emerald glen,
its forest sights and sounds abound
sweet wonder, true blessing to men
as a lover's beating heart pounds.
I stood in a stream its waters deep,
earth and sky calling out my name
truly fine gifts sent when I sleep
breath, cripples no longer lame.
I stood on high, heard a voice say,
seek not life's sad imitations
as life rises forth break of day
God's Love, sits in all creations.
