Every Mountain I Climb

I saw Judas Iscariot with a bottle of wine Talkin' suicide with an old friend of mine They gathered a crowd down at the end of the tracks And a woman cried out, "When is God comin' back?" And they pretended not to notice They came down hard on the weak Causing war and starvation Refusing to let them speak For every mountain I climb For every river that winds For every wind that will blow I will send out my prayers To the children below I saw a crazy horse walkin' alone in the dark On the streets paved in blood, on his broken heart He never dreamed it would turn out like this They pretend that they just don't see They are blinded with their own mediocrity They got their trophies and their cars Big houses on the hill and they don't really care That their wars are a killin' me For every child that follows the dream With ten thousand angels fly No one will force them to run They will stand up and fight till this battle is won For every mountain I climb For every river that winds For every wind that will blow I will send out my prayers To the children below For every mountain I climb For every river that winds For every wind that will blow I will send out my prayers To the children below For every mountain I climb For every river that winds
