Now Lord, don't move my mountain
But give me the strength to climb
And Lord, don't take away my stumbling blocks
But lead me all around
Oh Lord, you don't have to move the mountain
But give me the strength to climb
And Lord, don't take away my stumbling blocks
But lead me all around
Lord, I don't bother nobody
I try to treat everybody the same
But everytime, I turn my back
They scandalize my name
But oh Jesus, You don't have to move my mountain
But give me the strength to climb
And Lord, don't take away my stumbling blocks
But lead me all around
Now when my folks would slay me
These things they will try to do
But Lord, don't touch em
But within their heart
Make em give their life to You
Oh Master, you don't have to move my mountain
But give me the strength to climb
And Lord, don't take away my stumbling blocks
But lead me
