The song that explains my experiences and my love for Tanzania and it's people is best described in Steven Curtis Chapman’s song
The Mountain
I’m wanna build a house up on the mountain. Way up high where the peaceful waters flow to quench my thirsty soul, up on the mountain. I can see for miles upon this mountain. Troubles seem so small they almost disappear; Lord I love it here, up on the mountain.
My faith is strength and my all that I see. You make it easy for me to believe, up on the mountain. Oh up on the mountain.
I would love to live upon this mountain and keep the pain of living life so far away, but I know I can’t stay up on the mountain.
I said I go Lord where ever you lead for where you are is where I most want to be and I can tell we are headed for the valley.
My faith is strength and my all that I see. So lord help me remember what you told me up on the mountain.
You bring me up here on the mountain for me to rest and learn and grow. I see the truth up on the mountain and I carry it to the world far below. So, as I go down to the valley knowing that you will go with me. This is my prayer Lord help me to remember what you have shown me, up on the mountain.
I cherish these times up on the mountain. I can leave this place because I know someday you will take me home to live forever up on the mountain.
