Lyrics
A Mountaintop Experience
© Vance R. Parker
Verse 1
Bear me up on eagles? wings
And bring me close to you
I want to hear your holy word
And feel your presence too
Sanctify my heart and mind
To fellowship with you
Take me on the mountaintop with you
Chorus
A mountaintop experience
Is what I want with you
Take me high above it all
And let me walk with you
Give me Lord the faith I need
To do what I must do
I need a mountaintop experience with you
Verse 2
When I?m in a valley low
Help me travel through
When I stumble on a stone
Help me start anew
Make my prayer a foothold
That leads me up to you
Help me climb the mountaintop to you
Chorus
A mountaintop experience
Is what I want with you
Take me high above it all
And let me walk with you
Give me Lord the faith I need
To do what I must do
I need a mountaintop experience with you
Verse 3
And now my struggle?s over
I?ve put my trust in you
I?m standing on the mountaintop
How beautiful the view
The Son is shining on my face
I feel him through and through
Upon the mount I stand and worship you
Chorus
A mountaintop experience
Is what I want with you
Take me high above it all
And let me walk with you
Give me Lord the faith I need
To do what I must do
I need a mountaintop experience with you
Repeat chorus ? take higher
A mountaintop experience
Is what I want with you
Take me high above it all
And let me walk with you
Give me Lord the faith I need
To do what I must do
I need a mountaintop experience with you
End
A mountaintop experience with you
Take me high and bring me, close to you
A mountaintop experience with you
