Highlands (Song Of Ascent) – Hillsong UNITED

Verse1
      Em                  D
O how high would I climb mountains
        C                       G
If the mountains were where You hide
      Em                 D
O how far I'd scale the valleys
        C                G
If You graced the other side

Verse2
       Em                  D
O how long have I chased rivers
           C                   G
From lowly seas to where they rise
            Em               D
Against the rush of grace descending
          C             G
From the source of its supply

Prechorus1
        C        D           Em
In the highlands and the heartache 
               G               D
You're neither more or less inclined
         C         D         Em
I would search and stop at nothing
            C
You're just not that hard to find

Chorus
G
  I will praise You on the mountain
D                                                 Em
  And I will praise You when the mountain's in my way
            D
You're the summit where my feet are
C                                              G
  So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
                             D
No less God within the shadows
                                          Em
No less faithful when the night leads me astray
           D
You're the heaven where my heart is
C
  In the highlands and the heartache all the same

Interlude
Em   D   C   G

Verse3
      Em                D
O how far beneath Your glory
          C                   G
Does Your kindness extend the path
                Em               D
From where Your feet rest on the sunrise
             C                    G
To where You sweep the sinner's past

Verse4
      Em                   D
O how fast would You come running
           C                      G
If just to shadow me through the night
          Em                   D
Trace my steps through all my failure
            C              G
And walk me out the other side

Prechorus2
               C      D          Em
For who could dare ascend that mountain
               G               D
That valleyed hill called Calvary
            C     D           Em
But for the One I call Good Shepherd
           C
Who like a lamb was slain for me

Bridge
           Em
Whatever I walk through
           D
Wherever I am
                    C
Your Name can move mountains
            G
Wherever I stand
              Em
And if ever I walk through
               D
The valley of death
                       C
I’ll sing through the shadows
            G
My song of ascent

Prechorus3
         C       D        Em
From the gravest of all valleys
         G                  D
Come the pastures we call grace
         C        D      Em
A mighty river flowing upwards
       C
From a deep but empty grave

Verse1
O how high would I climb mountains
If the mountains were where You hide
O how far I’d scale the valleys
If You graced the other side

Verse2
O how long have I chased rivers
From lowly seas to where they rise
Against the rush of grace descending
From the source of its supply

Prechorus1
In the highlands and the heartache
You’re neither more or less inclined
I would search and stop at nothing
You’re just not that hard to find

Chorus
So I will praise You on the mountain
And I will praise You when the mountain’s in my way
You’re the summit where my feet are
So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
No less God within the shadows
No less faithful when the night leads me astray
You’re the heaven where my heart is
In the highlands and the heartache all the same

Verse3
O how far beneath Your glory
Does Your kindness extend the path
From where Your feet rest on the sunrise
To where You sweep the sinner’s past

Verse4
O how fast would You come running
If just to shadow me through the night
Trace my steps through all my failure
And walk me out the other side

Prechorus2
For who could dare ascend that mountain
That valleyed hill called Calvary
But for the One I call Good Shepherd
Who like a lamb was slain for me

Bridge
Whatever I walk through
Wherever I am
Your Name can move mountains
Wherever I stand

And if ever I walk through
The valley of death
I’ll sing through the shadows
My song of ascent

Prechorus3
From the gravest of all valleys
Come the pastures we call grace
A mighty river flowing upwards
From a deep but empty grave
