The Mountain
by The Perrys

Album: God's Little People - Live

Verse 1
Mount Everest was the mountain
The men had but one goal
As they reached the summit
The struggle took its toll
Their bodies cold and hungry
Their spirits ancient still
Waiting the taste of victory
And the glory they would feel

Chorus 1
As the flag was raised into the sky
History was made
The world will never forget
As long as the symbol stayed
Hanging there to show that victory had been won
The mountain had been conquered
The impossible was done

Verse 2
Mount Calvary was the mountain
The Man had but one goal
As He neared the summit
The struggle took its toll
His body cold and tired
His spirit anxious still
And though He knew He had the victory
The pain was still so real

Chorus 2

As the cross was raised into the sky
The price for sin was paid
Satan will never forget
The defeat that was his that day
Hanging there to show
the wrath of God towards sin
Through the death of His sacrifice
You and I can live

Bridge
Now the mountain had been conquered
Sin's cost was glory paid
The sacrifice was over
The atonement had been made
His death upon the mountain
Brought life to you and me
And with resurrection power
He won the victory

We have the victory
