For Such A Time As This Lyrics - Crystal Lewis

I built my house here 

long side this mountain 

This rugged mountain that stands so tall 

I've had a good life 

Above the lowlands 

It's more than I asked for, but less than I dreamed 

I've often heard a voice call down to me 

If you'd climb higher you'd find wondrous things to see 

But the way is steep 

And a storm may come... 

For such a time as this 

Isn't it much to great a risk 

I've never flown from the edge of a cliff 

Never walked on the water 

But if I turned away 

How would I know what I have missed 

Have I waited all of my life 

For such a time as this 

I've been content to not ask those questions 

That stir the rivers and move the waves 

The windless waters are so much more peaceful 

They calm my spirit in silent song 

I've often wondered what's eluding me 

The yearning's meant to free me from complacency 

But the way is steep 

And a storm my come... 

For such a time as this 

Isn't it much to great a risk 

I've never flown from the edge of a cliff 

Never walked on the water 

But if I turned away 

How would I know what I have missed 

Have I waited all of my life 

For such a time as this
