Every pilgrim has a mountain by Thurlow Weed — Lyrics
1. Every pilgrim has a mountain
that is hers alone to climb,
rising from the deepest places,
standing with the rush of time.
2. Every mountain has a summit
calling out to him who seeks,
though the way is often winding
and the summoning oblique.
3. Every summit has a threshold
with a path from either side,

About Every pilgrim has a mountain
Every pilgrim has a mountain explores the personal spiritual journey, likening life's challenges to a solitary climb. The text speaks of individual mountains, their summits, and the threshold where seekers meet their ultimate destination. The SATB setting of this English text offers a thoughtful reflection on guidance and purpose, ultimately calling on God as the source of all that draws and drives us. The hymn-like nature of the lyrics suggests a congregational or anthem setting, suitable for moments of contemplation on faith and perseverance.
