Lyrics

In Lonely Mountain Ways

[a hymn from Japan. translation by the late Dr. Paul Gregory with permission from his wife Catherine.]

In lonely mountain ways

Of this world's trial and care,
my heart knows naught of fear-scarred days;
The Master's hand is there!

My journey may be long,
The pathway rough and steep.
Sufficient for each day my song;
My way the Lord does keep.

And though when evening falls,
A stone my pillow shapes,

The vision of our kingdom calls
And here a Bethel makes.
