Words by S. Hindalong, Music by D. Daugherty
Go on up to the mountain of mercy
To the crimson perpetual tide
Kneel down on the shore
Be thirsty no more
Go under and be purified
Follow Christ to the holy mountain
Sinner sorry and wrecked by the fall
Cleanse your heart and your soul
In the fountain that flowed
For you and for me and for all
CHORUS:
At the wonderful, tragic, mysterious tree
On that beautiful, scandalous night you and me
Were atoned by His blood and forever washed white
On that beautiful, scandalous night
On the hillside, you will be delivered
At the foot of the cross justified
And your spirit restored
By the river that poured
From our blessed Savior's side
CHORUS
Go on up to the mountain of mercy
To the crimson perpetual tide
Kneel down on the shore
Be thirsty no more
Go under and be purified
CHORUS

This is an evidence that there is still good Christian music out there. I don't usually have the patience to sit through songs on the internet, but I'm glad I did. A great reflection to start my day. Thank you.
I love this song! It has been one of my favorites for a long time.
It is hauntingly beautiful and the lyrics are so powerful.
It always gives me chills when I hear it.
I loved that!
I have never heard it before.What a beautiful melody and the words are incredible.
That was amazing!I have never heard this before. I went and looked up the meaning of scandalous to get a better understanding of the song!Incredibly true words!Thank you again.
Thank you for sharing... it has been a couple of months since I have heard/sang that song. I am going to sleep now, resting in Jesus' arms. Thank you!
Thank you, Jane. That was beautiful and moving.

Thinking of you.
Stopping by to let you know.
HI!
Nothing like a little company to get hubbies motivated to take care of some unfinished projects. Yeah company!
How nice it will be to have an extra bathroom. I know how that is.
Alas, my resolve to not eat sugar--bit the dust.
I have been really trying to watch not overdoing the food thing in general. I saw the scale inching up and it scared me. So I am adding that to m list of things when I get on my knees in the morning. I don't guess I can rightly ask God to use me but to over look my gluttony. :(
I am busy getting ready for our next conference in N.C. I had a little panic time when I realized we leave next Saturday. So My sister will e coming over this morning as we try to plow through some stuff.
Enjoy your company!
My favorite song on my favorite CD.
Hey there!
I am sure that the HP movie got its PG-13 rating for violence - it would probably be pretty scary for younger children.
Lemme just say I understand completely where you are - and if you don't have peace - you should definitely pay attention to that!
BTW - I love this song!
