Up on the Hill Lyrics

Up on the Hill

There's an old cul-de-sac

Where I finally learned how to pray

Surrounded by all

Of the brothers and sisters

That I made while on the way

Up on the Hill

Where we all roamed together

As birds of a feather will do

Singing and playing

The songs of the ages

Like we had nothing to prove

Up on the Hill

Up on the Hill

Up on the

Up on the Hill

Up on the Hill

Up on the Hill

Up on the

Up on the Hill

Oh

Those were the days

We'll come to say

And if

I could go back

I'd give what I have

Up on the hill

In the places we gathered

I found who I wanted to be

Amidst all of you

And the wisdom which followed

Light swallowed the dark parts of me

Up on the Hill

When worship was constant

And God met us all in his time

Late nights up talking

'Bout things that we wanted

And where God had called us to shine

Up on the Hill

Up on the Hill

Up on the

Up on the Hill

Up on the Hill

Up on the Hill

Up on the

Up on the Hill

Oh

Those were the days

We'll come to say

And if

I could go back

I'd give what I have

To Chris and Sam

I know that the plans

God gave will prosper well

That your life together will

Find it's center upon

The one He's crowned

To Daniel and Emily

I hope that everything

You do's a joy and more

That teaching and raising

This next generation's

A privilege to adore

To Lindsay and Maddie

I'm happy you got to be

Two friends of mine these years

'Cause I got to learn

What it meant to have sisters

Through your friendships to me

To Logan and Bailey

I can't wait to see the things

God does through your lives

The work and devotion

You gave to your passions

Is often hard to find

To Spencer and Nick

I hope that this isn't

The last time we'll cross paths

That years down the road

I'll be thankful to know

The men that you've become

To Thomas and Jason well

Boy's it's been great just to

Meet you both while I was there

For two of the the friends

I made during the end

I'm glad that you were the pair

To Eva and Huntress

Thanks for the times you just

Opened your homes to us

Movies and game nights

Were something that made life

Just a bit sweeter each week

To Joel and Mason

It's never the same with

Out you two here anymore

Thank you for taking me

Into community

And loving me like the Lord

To Sam and Sami

Thank you for everything

You taught me these four years

I'm ever so grateful

My place at the table

Was in between you both

To Noah and Hunter

You kept our house under

The spell of music with me

I'm glad I could hear

What you both felt that year

Through the notes and words we shared

To Nick and Blake

Thank you both for the ways

You love and encourage me

I'm often in awe

Of the knowledge I draw

From being friends with you

To Harrison man

Though I don't understand

All that you've been through

Just being a part of

God's plan for you heart

Is something I won't soon forget

To Grayson my brother

There's not been another

I've thanked God for as you

I hope in the time since

My songs turned to silence

These old words still ring true

To those who are absent

From this if you're sad that

You weren't included here

Please know I regret it

But thank God I'm blessed with

Too many friends to fit

Up on a hill

There's an old rugged cross

Where my God gave his son up for me

He took all the sin

Of the world on his shoulders

And died so that I might be

Up on a hill

Where people were mourning

My savior arose from the grave

Standing victorious

On that broken morning

Our freedom from sin he gave

Up on a hill

Up on a hill

Up on a

Up on a hill

Up on a hill

Up on a hill

Up on a

Up on a hill

So my friends

Where we go where we stand in the end

Doesn't matter when he is the one

Who has guided us all to those lands

And though we

Might struggle some days to see

How the steps that we've taken are good

We can always look back to the

Hills that he gave us and all that he's

Done and the places brought from

Oh

These are the days

We'll come to say

And I'd

Never go back

With all that I have
