I'm comin up on the rough side of the mountain

Verse 1: Oh Lord, I'm strivin', tryin' to make it through this barren land, but as I go from day to day, I can hear my Savior say, "trust me child, come on and hold my hand." Chorus: I'm comin' up on the rough side of the mountain, I must hold to God, His powerful hand. I'm comin' up on the rough side of the mountain, I'm doin' my best to make it in. Verse 2: I'm comin' up Lord, although my burdens sometime they press me down, but if I can only keep this faith I'll have strength just to run this race; I'm lookin' for my starry crown. Chorus: I'm comin' up on the rough side of the mountain, I must hold to God, His powerful hand. I'm comin' up on the rough side of the mountain, I'm doin' my best to make it in. Verse 3: This old race will be soon be over, there'll be no more race for me to run. And I will stand before God's throne, all my heartaches will be gone, I'll hear my Savior say, "welcome home". Chorus: I'm comin' up on the rough side of the mountain, I must hold to God, His powerful hand. I'm comin' up on the rough side of the mountain, I'm doin' my best to make it in.
