"MOUNTAIN MEN"

Hungry, wandering,
Praying, pondering
Not lackadaisical, pharisaical
The mountain men.

Not angry in the flesh,
Not caught up in the mesh;
They drink those Waters fresh,
The mountain men.

God's way, God's clay,
God's ray, God's pay.
Why not?-They aught.
Blood-bought, Word-taught,
The mountain men.

They'll die, help you try,
Help you fly, help you pry,
The mountain men.

Loose from the old, Don't want no gold,
They are so bold. They're hot, not cold.
The mountain men.

Wise as a dove, They're all in love
With God Up Above. Please don't shove
The mountain men.

They've made the choice to hear God's voice;
They all rejoice; their hearts are moist.
The mountain men.

Don't eat too much. Yes, stay in touch.
Lean on God's crutch. World's not worthy of such.
The mountain men.

Give up their fear. Don't count their life dear.
You need not be here if you don't want to hear.

Solid foundation, brand new nation,
Evacuation, emancipation,
The mountain men.

Daring, caring,
sharing, bearing,
Not the System mold, do what they're told,
To Jesus they're sold, Persecuted and rolled.

They are so free, they'll help you see,
They're gonna be eternall--y.

--- progression with "ahhhhs" over top, then fade
