Goodbye, Mountains.

5.26.2015

This will be my last post on These Mountains Are Mine and Jon Foreman has given me some very fitting final words. It was this song, which I heard today for the very first time, that has given me the courage to say goodbye.


"The Mountain"
The Wonderlands, Sunlight EP
Jon Foreman

Oh the feeling comes to me again
The feeling to give up and to give in
The feeling that I've already lost the war
But a pure heart is worth waiting for

Get behind me all you little fears
Get behind me all you wasted years
Get behind me everything I've done wrong
A pure heart is coming with the dawn

I've decided to face this mountain
Stare the mountain down between the eyes
I'm not running from this mountain of mine
I've decided to face this mountain
Stand up to the mountain tonight
I believe You can move the mountain side

She's a pretty devil in disguise
The devils in the details of her eyes
She's a blurry vision in a dress tonight
Her tongue is mixing drinks like truths and lies

Maybe faith is found inside a seed
Maybe faith is still found inside of me
Mostly I feel like I'm lost at sea
I believe, Lord help my unbelief

I've decided to face this mountain
Stare the mountain down between the eyes
I'm not running from this mountain side
I've decided to face to this mountain
Stand up to this mountain of mine
I believe You can move this mountain of mine
I believe You can move the mountain side
I believe You can move the mountain of mine
