On A Mountain Top

On a mountain top I stand
ready and willing for my wings to expand
but something here holds me back.
So here I stand putting on an act.

On a mountain to I stand
looking at the world below
at all the hills and valleys.
From every high to every low.
Birds pass over me, their wings whisper
oh they whisper-and I want to adhere!
They beckon me saying "Join us up here!"
but alas I stay right here.
For something holds me back
and so here I am
still I am looking back.

On a mountain top I stand
looking in the air
and oh how I wish to be up there!
Up where the air is sweet,
so I can rest my weary feet.
But idle they stay.
So I have no choice,
no choice to listen as the creatures bay.
Creatures looming over me threatening me.
And oh how I wish to flee!
Flee, flee from it all.
Flee form all the blood and gall!
But here, right here I stay
never to obey
the beckoning calls I here.
No, I will never adhere.

On a mountain to still I stand
waiting ever for my wings to expand.
But firmly planted I will be
because this is where God planted me.
Growing taller will I be
firmly planted as a tree.
No bird, nor fish can persuade me,
because Jesus sowed my seeds.
On fertile ground He planted these.

So on a mountain top I forever stand,
overlooking the great expand.
Changing as the seasons come and go.
Never will I wander to and fro.
Giving shade to those who find,
rest under my leafy vines.
waving goodbye as they take flight.
That is how I will spend my life.
Standing proud and true.
Yes this is what God has called me to do.

Mr. Whipper Will
calling night and day
but no one ever hears
not in our world of coarse
but I know one day you'll find
that lost love your looking for

Mr. Whipper Will
how sorrowful you must be
because no one is listening to your song
no matter how in tune it must be
but you never fear
because the one who wrote it hears
yes he is listening always
and just to show He cares
He has created you something special
yes it's just for you
and and for that you have to bid a due

So Mr. Whipper Will
you say goodbye to us all
yes all of us here below
because you have an escape up high
where you can spread your fly
no it can't be beat
for we are all here on the ground
here with our clumbsy feet

And so Mr. Whipper Will
think of me next time
you take to the skies
yes enjoy your sweet escape
because Mr. Whipper Will
I'll join you
I might even pass you up
then I'll have a sweet escape
but don't worry I wont be greedy
no never fear
join me Mr. Whipper Will
and come fly up here
