Mountains, are they hard to climb?

Yet this scenery is hard to find

Difficult? You have no idea

Beyond the time?

Beyond the effort?

It’s the stress that’s beyond measure

Mountains sure are hard to climb

But merely staring at it is worth the time

It’s so beautiful, so sublime

Even my words start to rhyme

But still, mountains are hard to climb

Blood, sweat, tears

My hours are not mine

Myself, I sometimes cannot find

Myself, I often have to deny

Mountains are hard to climb

But these are my mountains, nonetheless

These are the challenges I have to face

This is the path I’ll have to trek

For God

For church

For country

For family

For me

Take the time to look at your mountains for me

Now, what do you see?

How truly beautiful are they, really?

Is it worth it?

It will be worth it

Now, start trekking
