[ HIGHLANDS ]

INTRO:
Em | D | C | G |

VERSE1: CHORUS:
Em D G
O how high would I climb mountains So I will praise You on the mountain
C G D
If the mountains were where You hide And I will praise You when the
Em D mountain’s in my way
O how far I’d scale the valleys
C G Em D
If You graced the other side You’re the summit where my feet are
C
So I will praise You in the valleys all the
VERSE2: same
O how long have I chased rivers
From lowly seas to where they rise G
Against the rush of grace descending No less God within the shadows
From the source of its supply D
No less faithful when the night leads me
astray
PRE-CHORUS 1:
C D Em Em D
Cause in the highlands and the heartache You’re the heaven where my heart is
G D C
You’re neither more or less inclined In the highlands and the heartache all the
C D Em same
I would search and stop at nothing
C
You’re just not that hard to find Em | D | C | G |
VERSE3: BRIDGE:
O how far beneath Your glory Em
Does Your kindness extend the path Whatever I walk through
From where Your feet rest on the sunrise D
To where You sweep the sinner’s past Wherever I am
C
Your name can move mountains
G
VERSE4: Wherever I stand
O how fast would You come running Em
If just to shadow me through the night And if ever I walk through
Trace my steps through all my failure D
And walk me out the other side The valley of death
C
I’ll sing through the shadows
G Em | D | C | G |
PRE-CHORUS 2: My song of ascent
For who could dare ascend that mountain
That valleyed hill called calvary
But for the one I call good shepherd PRE-CHORUS 3:
Who like a lamb was slain for me From the gravest of all valleys
Come the pastures we call grace
A mighty river flowing upwards
From a deep but empty grave
