Highlands (Song Of Ascent) By Hillsong United Lyrics
O how high would I climb mountains
If the mountains were where You hide
O how far I’d scale the valleys
If You graced the other side
O how long have I chased rivers
From lowly seas to where they rise
Against the rush of grace descending
From the source of its supply
Cause in the highlands and the heartache
You’re neither more or less inclined
I would search and stop at nothing
You’re just not that hard to find
Oh I will praise You on the mountain
And I will praise you when the mountain’s in my way
You’re the summit where my feet are
So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
No less God within the shadows
No less faithful when the night leads me astray
Cause You’re the Heaven where my heart is
In the highlands and the heartache all the same
O how far beneath Your glory
Does Your kindness extend the path
From where your feet rest on the sunrise
To where You sweep the sinner’s past
And though how fast would you come running
If just to shadow me through the night
Trace my steps through all my failures
And walk me out the other side
For who could dare ascend that mountain
That valleyed hill called Calvary
But for the One I call Good Shepherd
Who like a lamb was slain for me
Oh I will praise You on the mountain
And I will praise you when the mountain’s in my way
You’re the summit where my feet are
So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
No less God within the shadows
No less faithful when the night leads me astray
Cause You’re the Heaven where my heart is
In the highlands and the heartache all the same
Sing it out
Whatever I walk through
Wherever I am
Your Name can move mountains
Wherever I stand
And if ever I walk through
The valley of death
I’ll sing through the shadows
My song of ascent
Whatever I walk through
Wherever I am
Your Name can move mountains
Wherever I stand
And if ever I walk through
The valley of death
I’ll sing through the shadows
My song of ascent
My song of ascent
Sing it out
My song of ascent
From the gravest of all valleys
Come the pastures we call grace
A mighty river flowing upwards
From a deep but empty grave
So I will praise You on the mountain
And I will praise you when the mountain’s in my way
You’re the summit where my feet are
Yes you are
So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
No less God within the shadows
No less faithful when the night leads me astray
You’re the Heaven where my heart is
In the highlands and the heartache all the same
Highlands (Song Of Ascent) is not just an ordinary song just like that of the world, it’s highly spiritual. For the bible stated that: “If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you”. – John 15:19. Furthermore the scripture also state that in the book of John 8:22-24 So the Jews said, “Will he kill himself, since he says, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come’?” He said to them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins.”
Finally, when you keep listening to Goodly songs just like Highlands (Song Of Ascent) your relationship with God will be more closer and there will be high tendency that you forget the things of the world. We are in the generation where gospel music doesn’t matter to many youths again, when you check most of the so call Christians of this generation, you will discovered that secular songs are more than christian based songs in their device. Please don’t quote me wrong, i am not saying that all secular songs are bad.
For instance, junks foods are not bad but when you keep consuming every day, there’s a high tendency that you will eventually endangered your health. So it is more better not to take junks foods at all then to even take it once a while. I hope you all understand my opinion on this. Thanks and may God bless you as you consumed better songs.
Daniel 1:12-17
New International Version
12 “Please test(A) your servants for ten days: Give us nothing but vegetables to eat and water to drink. 13 Then compare our appearance with that of the young men who eat the royal food, and treat your servants in accordance with what you see.”(B) 14 So he agreed to this and tested(C) them for ten days.
15 At the end of the ten days they looked healthier and better nourished than any of the young men who ate the royal food.(D) 16 So the guard took away their choice food and the wine they were to drink and gave them vegetables instead.(E)
17 To these four young men God gave knowledge and understanding(F) of all kinds of literature and learning.(G) And Daniel could understand visions and dreams of all kinds.(H)
