rough side of the mountain lyrics
[intro]
clap your hands, c’mon
[verse 1]
oh, lord, i’m striving
tryin’ to make it through this barren land
but as i go from day to day, i can hear my savior say
“trust me child, come on, i’ll hold your hand,” come on, darling
[chorus]
i’m coming up
on the rough side
of the mountain
i must hold to god (gotta hold on)
his powerful hand
i’m coming up (yes, i am)
on the rough side
of the mountain (what you doin’, what you doin’ there?)
i’m doin’ my best to make it in
[verse 2]
i’m comin’ up, lord (i’m comin’ up, lord), i’m comin’ up, lord
although my burdens, sometimes, they press me down, i heard my daddy say this
but if i can only keep the faith, i’ll have strength just to run this race
i’m looking, i’m looking for my starry crown, everybody join in, c’mon
[chorus]
i’m coming up (on the rough side)
on the rough side (of the mountain)
of the mountain (oh, lord, but)
i must hold to god (gotta hold on)
his powerful hand (i’m comin’ up, y’all)
i’m coming up (on the rough side)
on the rough side (of the mountain)
of the mountain (doin’ my best)
i’m doin’ my best to make it in (lemme tell my last verse, lemme say this right here), say that
[verse 3]
this old race (this old race), it will soon be over (oh, yes, it will)
oh, there won’t be no more race for me to run, here’s what i gotta do
but i gotta stand before god’s throne, all my heartaches will be gone
i’ll hear my savior say, “welcome home”, one more time (oh)
[chorus]
i’m coming up (comin’ up, y’all)
on the rough side
of the mountain (yes, i am, but)
i must hold to god (can i hold on? yeah)
his powerful hand (i’m comin’ up, y’all)
i’m coming up (on the rough side)
on the rough side (of the mountain)
of the mountain (i’m doin’ my best)
i’m doin’ my best (yeah) to make it in (y’all clap your hands when i say this, well)
[outro]
i’m comin’ up (i’m comin’ up)
comin’ up (i’m comin’ up)
comin’ up (i’m comin’ up)
comin’ up (i’m comin’ up)
comin’ up, y’all (i’m comin’ up)
comin’ up (i’m comin’ up)
get harder sometimes (i’m comin’ up)
but i’m comin’ up (i’m comin’ up)
i have to crawl sometimes (oh, yes)
but i’m comin’ up (i’m comin’ up)
oh, yes, i am (oh, yes, i am)
yes, i am (yes, i am)
what about you? (i’m comin’ up)
what about you? (yes, i am)
are you comin’ up? (yes, i am)
are you comin’ up? (i’m comin’ up)
are you comin’ up? (i’m comin’ up)
are you comin’ up? (i’m comin’ up)
oh, yes, i am (oh, yes, i am)
comin’ up (i’m comin’ up)
and i’m doin’ my best to make it in, yeah
