One More Mountain



God, is this just one more mountain I must climb?

Or is it my last?

I must confess, it looks so high.

I'm not sure if I can climb this one ...

This time.



I'm really afraid,

But that is just between you and I.

I couldn't say that to anyone else.

I feel tears in my eyes and sorrow in my heart.

Looking back ... I've had so much,

Not being truly thankful ...

And never fully appreciating.



God, is this just one more mountain to climb?

Or is it my last?

Are you going to give me

The strength and courage

I need to reach the top this time?

I've lived ...   I've cried ...

I've laughed ...   I've loved ...

But I feel like I have so much more

That I want to do in my life.



God, is this just one more mountain to climb?

Or is it my last?

Please!  I want so much to reach the peak again.

I want to float on my own special cloud again.

I've so much more laughter ...

So much more passion for life ...

So much more love to give.

Please God!

The tears are beginning to well up in me now.



Is this just one more mountain to climb?

Or is it my last?
