If the hill ahead is much steeper
Than the one you faced before,
You know I'll climb it with you;
There's no need to feel unsure.

If you find your courage flagging,
I'll give you the strength to go on:
We've shared so many trials
And beaten them, every one.

Tho' your goal may seem out of sight,
And you can't see the path ahead,
I'll have enough faith for both of us;
I'm with you each foot you tread.

Let's rest and relax for a while;
Put your hand safely in mine;
Soon we will reach the summit
And leave all our worries behind.

Then we can look back and see
God helped us all of the way;
He healed us as we climbed
Through each sad and painful day.
