God Is

O how high would I climb mountains
 If the mountains were where You hide
 O how far I'd scale the valleys
 If You graced the other side
 O how long have I chased rivers
 From lowly seas to where they rise
 Against the rush of grace descending
 From the source of its supply
 In the highlands and the heartache
 You're neither more or less inclined
 I would search and stop at nothing
 You're just not that hard to find
 So I will praise You on the mountain
 And I will praise You when the mountain's in my way
 You're the summit where my feet are
 So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
 No less God within the shadows
 No less faithful when the night leads me astray
 You're the heaven where my heart is
 In the highlands and the heartache all the same
 O how far beneath Your glory
 Does Your kindness extend the path
 From where Your feet rest on the sunrise
 To where You sweep the sinner's past
 O how fast would You come running
 If just to shadow me through the night
 Trace my steps through all my failure
 And walk me out the other side
 For who could dare ascend that mountain
 That valleyed hill called Calvary
 But for the One I call Good Shepherd
 Who like a lamb was slain for me
 Whatever I walk through
 Wherever I am
 Your Name can move mountains
 Wherever I stand
 And if ever I walk through
 The valley of death
 I'll sing through the shadows
 My song of ascent
 From the gravest of all valleys
 Come the pastures we call grace
 A mighty river flowing upwards
 From a deep but empty grave
