I have already uploaded another version of this song which has been well received, but I have been wanting to do this version for quite some time. This is actually the first melody I wrote for this song back in 2002, but I thought it sounded too much like a Marty Robbins song, so I scrapped it and wrote another melody, and that's the one I used for my Mountain Moving CD. But a while back I found the original recording I made of this version which I made at the time I composed it, and I kind of liked it! I hadn't included the refrain on this version, though, and I felt like it needed one, so I waited to do it on You Tube until I came up with a suitable melody for the shortened version of the refrain that would go with this version. I could have done it a long time ago, but I just never found the time. Well, anyway, here it is. Let me know what you think.

Lord, I've never moved a mountain,
And perhaps I never will.
All the faith that I could muster
Wouldn't move a small ant hill.
Yet, I cannot help but wonder,
As I walk through life with Thee,
At all the mountain moving
I have seen You do for me.

Refrain:
Jesus said if I only had faith
As small as a mustard seed
I could say unto this mountain,
"Be removed," and it would leave!

When I've needed grace to lift me
From the depths of deep dispair,
And when burdens, pain, and sorrows
Have been more than I could bear,
You have always been my Captain.
You have calmed life's troubled seas.
You have moved the little mountains
That have seemed so big to me. (refrain)

Many times we all have problems.
There are bills we have to pay.
All the worries and the heartaches
Keep increasing day by day.
Lord, I don't know how you do it.
Every time it's a surprise,
As I watch You change the mountains
Into blessings in disguise. (refrain)

No, I've never moved a mountain.
My faith is far too small.
But, I thank the Lord in heaven
Who has always heard my call.
And as long as there are mountains
In my life I'll have no fear.
For the mountain moving Jesus
Always walks beside me here. (refrain)
