Go Rest High on that Mountain
(Vince Gill)
I know your life on earth was troubled,
And only you could know the pain.
You weren't afraid to face the devil.
You were no stranger to the rain.
Cho: Go rest high on that mountain.
Son, your work on earth is done.
Go to heaven a-shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son.
Oh, how we cried the day you left us!
We gathered 'round your grave to grieve.
I wish I could see the angels' faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing. (Chorus)
Go to heaven a-shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son.
Recorded by Vince Gill on "When Love Finds You," 1994, and by several others.
