Too many miles behind me Too many trials are through Too many tears help me remember There’s just too much to gain to lose. Too many sunsets lie behind the mountain Too many rivers my feet have walked through Too many treasures are waiting over yonder There’s just too much to gain to lose. I’ve crossed the hot burning desert Struggling the right road to choose But somewhere up ahead, there’s cool, clear water And defeat is one word I don’t use. Too many sunsets lie behind the mountain Too many rivers my feet have walked through Too many treasures are waiting over yonder There’s just too much to gain to lose There’s just too much to gain to lose.
My mother is in the hospital this weekend. One of the women who works here came through humming this and I asked what it was. She told me, so I looked it up. What a beautiful, moving piece of music! I'm not Christian, but it's still powerful. Thank you for sharing.
