For who could dare ascend that mountain That valleyed hill called Calvary But for the One I call Good Shepherd Who like a lamb was slain for me
Chorus So I will praise You on the mountain And I will praise You when the mountain ' s in my way ' Cause You ' re the summit where my feet are So I will praise You in the valleys all the same No less God within the shadows No less faithful when the night leads me astray You ' re the heaven where my heart is In the highlands and the heartache all the same
Bridge Whatever I walk through Wherever I am Your Name can move mountains Wherever I stand And if ever I walk through The valley of death I ' ll sing through the shadows My song of ascent X2
From the gravest of all valleys Come the pastures we call grace A mighty river flowing upwards From a deep but empty grave
Chorus
