The mountains are steep

And the valleys low

Already I'm weary

But I have so far to go

Oh and sorrow holds my hand

And suffering sings me songs

But when I close my eyes

I know to whom I belong

Who makes me strong

I will be free

I will be free to run the mountains

I will be free

Free to drink from the living fountain

Oh I'll never turn back

'Cause He waits for me

Oh I will be free

A wise man a rich man

In pauper's clothes

A shepherd to lead us

Through the land of woes

Though many battles I have lost

So many rivers yet to cross

But when my eyes behold the Son

Who bore my loss who paid the cost

I will be free

I will be free to run the mountains

I will be free

Free to drink from the living fountain

Oh I'll never turn back

'Cause He waits for me

Oh I will be free

Oh and I'll dance on silver moonlight

And I'll walk through velvet fields

Oh and I'll run into the arms

The arms that set me free

Oh

I will be free to run the mountains

I will be free

Free to drink from the living fountain

Oh I'll never turn back

'Cause He waits

I'll never turn back

Don't you ever turn back

Because someday someday we're gonna see

We will be free
