Lyrics
Verse 1
Now listen here, church
I'm talking about a hill
Dust on his sandals
Fire in his will
Fire in his will
He said, "Blessed are the broken"
"Blessed are the bruised"
"Blessed are the folks this world done used"
Verse 2
"Blessed when you're hungry for a right and holy way"
"Blessed when they curse you 'cause you chose his name today"
Chorus
On that mountain, Jesus laid it all out clear
Turn your cheek, lay down that spear
Salt of the earth, light in the dark
Love your enemies, guard your heart
On that mountain, every word cut clean and true
If you hear it, let it move you
Rock on the feet, storm all around
I'm standing on that sermon of the mount
Verse 3
He said, "Don't chase the glitter"
"Moth and rust gonna steal"
"Store your treasure high where heaven signs the deal"
"Seek first the kingdom, let tomorrow be tomorrow"
"He'll dress the field in flowers, he'll dress your soul in mercy, not in sorrow"
Chorus
On that mountain, Jesus laid it all out clear
Turn your cheek, lay down that spear
Salt of the earth, light in the dark
Love your enemies, guard your heart
On that mountain, every word cut clean and true
If you hear it, let it move you
Rock on the feet, storm all around
I'm standing on that sermon of the mount
Bridge
He said, "Why is that highway crowded, easy, slick?"
"But narrow is that little dirt trail, and few there be that pick it"
"You build on sand, it's falling"
"You build on him, it stands"
So what you building on, brother?
What you building on, sister?
Chorus
On that mountain, Jesus laid it all out clear
Turn your cheek, lay down that spear
Salt of the earth, light in the dark
Love your enemies, guard your heart
On that mountain, every word cut clean and true
If you hear it, let it move you
Rock on the feet, storm all around
I'm standing on that sermon of the mount
Outro
Yeah, I'm standing
Rock on the feet, storm all around
Still standing on that sermon of the mount
