I faced a mountain
That I never faced before
That's why I'm calling on the Lord
I know it's been awhile
Lord please hear my prayer
I need you like I never have before
Chorus:
Sometimes it takes a mountain
Sometimes a troubled sea
Sometimes it takes a desert
To get a hold of me
Your Love is so much stronger
Then whatever troubles me
Sometimes it takes a mountain
To trust you and believe
Far from you Jesus
I thought I could control
Whatever life would throw my way
But this I will admit
Has brought me to my knees
I need you Lord and I'm not ashamed to say
(Repeat chorus)
Sometimes it takes a mountain
Sometimes a troubled sea
Sometimes it takes a desert
To get a hold of me
Your Love is so much stronger
Then whatever troubles me
Sometimes it takes a mountain
Sometimes it takes a mountain
To trust you and believe
Sometimes It Takes a Mountain was written by Gloria Gaither.
Sometimes It Takes a Mountain was produced by Bill Gaither & David Phelps & Ben Isaacs.
It looks like mostly it was written by Mark Mathes, who’s written lots of other songs that have been picked up by Southern Gospel groups. Gloria Gaither technically also has a songwriting credit on it, but most places it’s referred to as Mark’s song.
