Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I see the trouble standing before me

Like a mountain, it's like a mountain

My spirit is trembles under its shadow

I can't escape it, Lord, help me face it


I can't keep pretending everything is okay

I can't keep on hidin', hopin' it goes away

I'm movin' forward, even though I'm afraid

Can You hear my heart say, hear my heart say:


I need You

To lead me through

There's no gettin' over it

Or goin' around it

When the mountain won't move

(When the mountain won't move)

I need You

To lead me through

Walkin' before me

Behind, and beside me

I'm followin' You

The only way out

Is if You lead me through


It won't be easy, it won't be painless

But Lord with Your strength, I will get through this

There is no cheatin' or taking shortcuts

It takes a cocoon to make a butterfly


I need You

To lead me through

There's no gettin' over it

Or goin' around it

When the mountain won't move

(When the mountain won't move)

I need You

To lead me through

Walkin' before me

Behind, and beside me

I'm followin' You

The only way out

Is if You lead me through

Through

You lead me through (yeah)

Through


Sometimes it feels like the world is shakin'

Sometimes it feels like it's never gonna end

But just up ahead, I believe that the light is

Breakin' through, breakin' through

Sometimes it feels like the world is shakin'

Sometimes it feels like it's never gonna end

But just up ahead, I believe that the light is

Breakin' through, Jesus I need You


When the mountain won't move

I'm goin' where You go

'Cause there's somethin' beautiful

You're leadin' me to


I need You

To lead me through

There's no gettin' over it

Or goin' around it

When the mountain won't move

(When the mountain won't move)

I need You

To lead me through

Walkin' before me

Behind, and beside me

I'm followin' You

The only way out

Is if You lead me through (oh-oh-oh)

Through (yeah)

You lead me through (You're leadin' me through)

Through (yeah, You're leadin' me through)
