Don't lose [D] faith for you're never a [G] lone.


CHO:

For the [D] God on the [C] mountain is still God in the [G] valley.

GOD ON THE MOUNTAIN
Words and music: Tracy Dartt, Copyright: Manna Music Inc.
Adapted, edited, verse 2 © 2012 by Susan O. Hinton for The Good News Goodtime Band



1. Life is easy when you're up on the mountain,
And you've got peace like you've never known.
But then things change, and you're down in the valley.
Don't lose faith for you're never alone!

REFRAIN:
For the God on the mountain is still God in the valley.
When things go wrong, He'll make it right.
And the God of the good times is still God in the bad times.
The God of the day is still God in the night.

2. I saw His face…. we were up on that mountain!
How it shone, and lovely to see.
Now I'm(-a) lost… and I'm in that deep valley;
Yet His voice I hear looking for me.

3. We talk of faith when we're up on the mountain--
How that comes easy when we're at our best!
But it's down in the valley of trials and temptations
That's when faith… is really put to the test.

GOD ON THE MOUNTAIN
As sung by Linda Randle


1. Life is easy... when you're up on the mountain,
And you've got peace of mind like you've never known.
But... things change... when you're down in the [G] valley.
Don't lose faith... for you're never alone.


CHORUS:

For the God on the mountain... is still God in the valley.
When things go wrong... He'll make them right...
And the God of the good times...
Is still God in the bad times.
The God of the day.... is still God in the night.


2. You talk of faith way up on the mountain.
Oh but the talk comes easy when life's at its best.
Now it's down in the valley of trials and temptations
That's when your faith is really put to the test.

SH

God On The Mountain


Life is [G] easy when you're [C] up on the moun [G] tain
And you've got [D] peace of mind like you've never [G] known.
But then things change and you're [C] down in the [G] valley.
Don't lose [D] faith for you're never a [G] lone.


CHO:

For the God on the [C] mountain is still God in the [G] valley.
When things go [D] wrong, He'll make it [G] right.
And the God of the [C] good times
is still God in the [G] bad times.
The God of the [D] day is still God in the [G] night.


You talk of [G] faith when you're [C] up on the moun [G] tain.
Oh but the talk comes [D] easy when life's at its [G] best.
But it's down in the valley of [C] trials and temp [G] tation
That's when [D] faith is really put to the [G] test.
