Life is like a Mountain

Life is like a mountain,

Often steep and hard to climb.

But when you pass the valley tests,

You’ll manage it just fine.

There are many obstacles to your path,

Things designed to lose your grip.

But when you climb in right conditions,

You’ll discover hinds feet in your step.

Climbing mountains takes many attempts,

Before you reach its summit.

But don’t give up, just persevere,

Till you can be proud to say you’ve done it.

There are many different mountains to climb,

Some you’ll just go around.

But if you speak to your mountain,

You can turn them to flattened ground.

A mountain climb needs plenty of stops,

To rest up and drink afresh.

There’ll be physical pain to overcome,

And a difficult fight of the flesh.

Hold on to the rock that’s firm,

Set your foot on steady ground.

Don’t be swayed by the changing winds,

Reach for the top where eagles abound.

Let your offences drop like falling rocks,

Keep your heart light and pure.

Let God’s word be your safety gear,

For it will make you feel more secure.

And when you reach the summit peak,

You’ll have achieved your scenic reward.

For waiting there at the end of your climb,

Will be your Saviour and your Lord.
