There's a rock in the road
And a ditch on the side
And a steep hill that must be climbed
It's a big heavy load
And it measures too wide
And a destination
That's hard to find
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
There's a stop sign ahead
And it's slippery when wet
And a detour at every turn
There's a narrowing bridge
And a long threatening ridge
And a big-old landslide
That bars return
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
There's a wreck on the right
And it's getting on night
And my headlights, they won't turn on
All the brakes have been worn
And the bumper's been torn
And my pride and patience
Are all but gone
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
I'll make it there
I will get over .........
