Journey to Jerusalem: With Hearts held high
Today I went hiking
with a group on a men's retreat.

I was reminded of the below song. It is a reminder of our Mountain Top experiences of God. As we leave the mountain top, we leave encouraged, strengthened, renewed.
On our Journey to Jerusalem,
let us go with hearts held high.
We follow Jesus who goes before us.
We walk with the believers of every time and place right beside us.
And even our broken cups, God fills to overflowing.

"Walk Down This Mountain" by Bebo Norman
It's a better place
Standing high upon this mountain
I've seen your face
Full of the light that holiest height can show
Blessed hand is why you you've given
But you've been given all you'll ever need
To know
Chorus:
So walk down this mountain
With your heart held high
Follow in the footsteps of your maker
With this love that's gone before you
And these people at your side
If you offer up your broken cup
You will taste the meaning of this life
So walk down this mountain
With your heart held high
Follow in the footsteps of your maker
With this love that's gone before you
And these people at your side
If you offer up your broken cup
You will taste the meaning of this life
Well it's a common ground
And I see you're all still standing
But just look around and you'll find
The very face of God
He's walking down into the distance
He's walking down to where the masses are (Chorus)
And I see you're all still standing
But just look around and you'll find
The very face of God
He's walking down into the distance
He's walking down to where the masses are (Chorus)
We're standing in a place of peace
And this is how the world should be
How the world should be
(Walk down this mountain with your heart held high)
How the world should be
(Walk down this mountain with you heart held high)
How the world should be
(Walk down this mountain with your heart held high)
How the world should be . (Chorus)
We're standing in a place of peace
And this is how the world should be
How the world should be
(Walk down this mountain with your heart held high)
How the world should be
(Walk down this mountain with you heart held high)
How the world should be
(Walk down this mountain with your heart held high)
How the world should be . (Chorus)
