 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
 Then I hear your sweet voice  coming in, oh
 Telling me softly,  softly you love me so
 The peaceful valley  just over the mountain
 The peaceful  valley few come to know
 I may never get there  ever in this  lifetime
But  sooner or later,  it's there I will go
 Sooner or later,  it's there I will go
