Lead Vocal: Michael Fridley
Music: Stevie Wonder
Lyrics: Josiah

"MOUNTAIN MAN"

Verse One:
Something deep inside of me
Kept me moving endlessly.
I could never really be free
As a valley man.
I traveled 'round, I tried to be
Somebody else but never me,
But then Jesus set me free,
Now I'm a mountain man.

Chorus One:
Mountain man, mountain man,
We're going to walk hand in hand
Way up here where the air is fresh and clean.
Mountain man, mountain man,
I'm going to win every soul that I can.
I'm just a proud, unworthy, but happy mountain man.

Verse Two:
When I could not see the light,
There wasn't any reason to fight,
But now I'll fight with all my might
To stay a mountain man.
I realize that I can't see,
So I'll let Jesus speak for me
And I know I'll always be a
Fightin' mountain man.

[Repeat Chorus One]

Music Break:

Verse Three:
Heal the sick and preach the Word,
The sweetest sound I ever heard;
Evolution is so absurd,
It's very plain to see.
Many come and many go,
People running to and fro,
To the valley they all go,
But I'm glad I'm a mountain man.

Chorus Two:
Mountain man, mountain man,
We're going to walk hand in hand
Way up here where the air is fresh and clean.
Mountain man, mountain man,
I'm going to win every soul that I can.
I'm just a proud, unworthy, but happy mountain man.

Mountain man, we're going to walk hand in hand
Way up here where the air is fresh and clean.
Mountain man, mountain man,
I'm going to win every soul that I can.
I'm just a proud, unworthy, but happy mountain man.
-I'm just a proud, unworthy, but happy mountain man.
