Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I faced a mountain
That I never faced before
That's why I'm calling on You, Lord
I know it's been awhile
But Lord, please hear my prayers
I need You like I never have before
[Verse 2]
Sometimes it takes a mountain
Sometimes a troubled sea
Sometimes it takes a desert
To get a hold of me
[Verse 3]
Your love is so much stronger
Then whatever troubles me
Sometimes it takes a mountain
To trust You and believe
[Verse 4]
Forgive me, Jesus
I thought I could control
Whatever life would throw my way
But this I will admit
Has brought me to my knees
I need You, Lord, and I'm not ashamed to say
[Verse 5]
Sometimes it takes a mountain
Sometimes a troubled sea
Sometimes it takes a desert
To get a hold of me
[Verse 6]
Your love is so much stronger
Then whatever troubles me
Sometimes it takes a mountain
To trust You and believe
[Verse 7]
Sometimes it takes a mountain
To trust You and believe
[Verse 8]
Sometimes it takes a mountain
Sometimes a troubled sea
Sometimes it takes a desert
To get a hold of me
[Verse 9]
Your love is so much stronger
Then whatever troubles me
Sometimes it takes a mountain
To trust You and believe
[Verse 10]
Sometimes it takes a mountain
To trust You and believe
