Lyrics

[Intro]
[acoustic guitar strumming steady quarter notes]

[Verse 1]
[four-part male vocal harmony enters]
Thank God today I am upon the mountain
A gentle breeze is blowing upon my face
Bringing along the joys of the flowers
And the birds seem to sing a song my way

[Verse 2]
Thank God today I am upon the mountain
Taking away the hurtings of yesterday
Bringing along the joys of the showers
And to see the sunset at end of day

[Chorus]
Thank God these days I have a touch of heaven
Life's sorrows gone and my cares have slipped away
These are some joys of my salvation
These sweet days Lord I give you all the praise

[Instrumental Break]
[acoustic guitar solo melody over rhythmic strumming]

[Verse 3]
Thank God these days I look upon the valley
Life's sorrows are just waiting again for me
I keep in mind the joys of the mountains
And someday on the top again I'll be

[Chorus]
Thank God these days I have a touch of heaven
Life's sorrows gone and my cares have slipped away
These are some joys of my salvation
These sweet days Lord I give you all the praise
[final chord held with vocal vibrato]

[Outro]
[acoustic guitar fades out with final strum]
