God on the Mountain is Still God in the Valley

Last night we heard Lynda Randle singing God on the Mountain on a Gaither TV program. This got me thinking about my cousin Lorne, who passed away three years ago, because he was the first one I heard sing that song. He could really sing it from his heart because it expressed the experiences of his life. I did not remember that yesterday would have been his 61st birthday until I saw the memories of Lorne posted by our cousin Al (The Blog Fodder).

God on the Mountain (words and music by Tracy Dart: sung by John Starnes)

Life Is Easy, When Your Up On The Mountain
And You've Got Peace Of Mind like You've Never Known
But Then Things Change And Your Down In The Valley
Don't Lose Hope For Your Never Alone

For The God On The Mountain Is Still God In The Valley
When Things Go Wrong He'll Make Them Right
And The God Of The Good Times,
Is Still God Of The Bad Times
And The God Of The Day Is Still God Of The Night

You Talk Of Faith When Your Up On The Mountain
Oh, But The Talk Comes So Easy when Life's At Its Best
But Its Down In The Valley Of Trials And Temptations
That's Where Faith Is Really Put To The Test

For The God On The Mountain Is Still God In The Valley
When Things Go Wrong He'll Make Them Right
And The God Of The Good Times, Is Still God Of The Bad Times
And The God Of The Day Is Still God Of The Night

For The God On The Mountain Is Still God In The Valley
When Things Go Wrong He'll Make Them Right
And The God Of The Good Times, Is Still God Of The Bad Times
And The God Of The Day Is Still God Of The Night
And The God Of The Day Is Still God Of The Night
