Up to the Mountain Went the Lord
- Up to the mountain went the Lord
to teach the multitudes.
He fed them with his loving words,
and loaves and fishes too. - Up to the mountain high he climbed
with Peter, James, and John.
The Lord, transfigured, dazzling white,
God claimed as his dear Son. - Upon the Lake of Galilee
th’apostles’ boat was tossed.
Awoke from sleep, the Lord rebuked
the wind, the storm to calm. - Up in the region Gerasene
a demon Jesus met.
Christ freed the man from Legion’s grip;
in swine they came to rest. - Up to Jerus’lem rode the Lord,
acclaimed as saving King.
Sweet, glorious praises to the Lord
with palms the crowd did sing. - Up to the garden Jesus went.
He prayed with all his might.
With friends asleep, his foes drew near.
Betrayed, he did not fight. - Outside the city Jesus went
to Golgotha and death.
Encrowned with thorns, he bore the cross
of sin to his last breath. - Up from the grave arose our Lord
when passed the three long days.
He walked with friends upon the road.
Alive, he did amaze. - Up to the heav’nly place Christ soared
to sit at God’s right hand.
He reigns above, our gracious King.
Yet, he will come again.
