I Will Get Over

There's a rock in the road

And a ditch on the side

And a steep hill that must be climbed

It's a big heavy load

And it measures too wide

And a destination

That's hard to find, but

I will get over

I'll make it there

There's just no getting 'round it

This trouble I bear

I will get over

I'll make it there

'Til I climb up that mountain

And breathe heaven's air

I will get over

There's a stop sign ahead

And it's slippery when wet

And a detour at every turn

There's a narrowing bridge

A long threatening ridge

And a big, old landslide

That bars return, but

I will get over

I'll make it there

'Til I climb up that mountain

And breathe heaven's air

I will get over

'Til that sweet day I find it

And know that I'm there

I will get over

There's a wreck on the right

And it's getting on night

And the headlights, they won't turn on

All my brakes have been worn

Bumper's been torn

And my pride and patience

Are all but gone

I will get over

I'll make it there

'Til I climb up that mountain

And breathe heaven's air

I will get over

I'll make it there

'Til I climb up that mountain

And breathe heaven's air, ooh

I will get over

I'll make it there

I will get over

I will get over

I will get over

I will get over

I will get over
