[Verse 1]
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.

[Verse 2]
Forgive me 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.
To trust you and believe.

[Coda]
Sometimes it takes a mountain.
To trust you and believe.
