Lyrics Up To The Mountain (MLK Song) - Patty Griffin

Up To The Mountain (MLK Song)

I went up to the mountain
Because you asked me to
Up over the clouds
To where the sky was blue
I could see all around me
Everywhere
I could see all around me
Everywhere
Sometimes I feel like
I’ve never been nothing but tired
And I’ll be walking
Till the day I expire
Sometimes I lay down
No more can I do
But then I go on again
Because you ask me to
Some days I look down
Afraid I will fall
And though the sun shines
I see nothing at all
And I hear your sweet voic
Your, sweet voice
Come and then go
Tlling me softly
You love me so
Peaceful valley
Just over the mountain
The peaceful valley
Few come to know
I may, I may never get there
Ever in my lifetime
But sooner or later
It’s there I will go
Sooner or later
It’s there I will go
