Be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and present yourself there to me on the top of the mountain. (Exodus 34:2, ESV)
Climbing my mountain high
I lost the meaning of my days
Higher yet to climb the why
Search for God, long for praise
His message of hope at the top
For friends and foe alike up there
Deserve their part as harvest crop
Stand in place and let Him share
Mountain prepared a speech or two
I struggled to climb high up there
Spoke of relationship kind and true
For in the mount, He said “I care.”
Sun rises in place, lights my path
For it was ready to shine at night
More I climbed the less my wrath
For at the top, I see God’s Light
Upon the peak, my heart embrace
Unveiled the secrets of that sky
The perfect winds, His gentle grace
My earthly woe has said goodbye
