Lyrics
i stood on the edge of 8 years old, on a mountain top in minnesota, behind my old grade school, we'd steady our nerve and take a breath, throwing ourselves to certain death, but the kings of the hill must fight to keep their rule, i went back there a couple years ago, that mountain was twenty feet tall, skip to the scene where i was sixteen, taking my turn on the tilt-a-whirl, holding the hand of a brown eyed girl, i thought would be the one, when the ride got rough we were torn apart, the spinning stopped like a broken heart, i blinked and she was gone, i felt shipwrecked at the edge of the world, but love came and found me again, on the other side, where it's easier to see the way, his hand provides just in time to save the day, and i realize the mountains i was scared to climb, aren't as big as i thought they were, when i'm on the other side, skip to the scene where i'm on my knees, holding on 'til the morning light, trying to trust when the money's tight, in a hope i can't explain, crossword puzzles in the waiting room, praying for an answer soon, to fill in all the blanks, but i've been here many times before, and love's always carried me through, to the other side, where it's easier to see the way, his hand provides just in time to save the day, and i realize the mountains i was scared to climb, aren't as big as i thought they were, when i'm on the other side, how many times am i destined to prove, i can't do this all on my own, but there is freedom in failing and finding his mercy, and standing in front of his throne, i'm not as big as i thought i was, so i won't be afraid, no matter what the trouble is i see today, the maker of the mountains, he will make a way, to lead me through the darkness to the other side, where it's easier to see the way, his hand provides just in time to save the day, and i realize the mountains i was scared to climb, aren't as big as i thought they were, when i'm on the other side, every chapter that we've been through, has taught me to rely on you, jesus teach me that again
