LYRICS
Climbing High Mountains
as sung by Lucy Simpson
Lord I’m climbing high mountains
Trying to get home.
Lord I’m climbing high mountains
Trying to get home.
Lord I’m climbing high mountains,
Climbing high mountains,
Lord I’m climbing high mountains
Trying to get home.
Lord my way sometimes weary…
Lord I’m bearing my burden…
