The City Harmonic, “Mountaintop”

I’ve just learned that Contemporary Christian rock band The City Harmonic has released Mountaintop off their I Have a Dream album. Now this really excites me. Not just because Mountaintop is the best track off this album, but because I Have a Dream – the title track – wasn’t really as catchy as the band’s hit single Manifesto, and Mountaintop was a bigger single, in my opinion. Plus the instrumentation on the studio version is really, really powerful – it’s the kind of song that gets one’s pulse racing, and when we hear Elias Dummer sing our God here and now, we are the body of our God, it just explodes magnificently all over the place. Hopefully, Christian AC and rock formats will open up to Mountaintop, because this song is all shades of awesome. It should rest on the mountaintop of the Christian charts. (See what I did there? LOL Sorry, won’t happen again.)

(In this awesome fancam vid, Mountaintop starts at around 1:28; thanks, EMI, for blocking all other Mountaintop videos from the Philippines. *sarcasm*)

MOUNTAINTOP Lyrics
The City Harmonic

The valley low that’s where we’ll make our homes
But this I know that’s what He saved us from
Cause we’ve seen the glory of our King
On the mountaintop

We’ve been to the mountaintop
We’ve seen the glory of our God
He is here in the valley low
He’s here I feel it in my bones
Our God here and now
We are the body of our God

Oh I’ve done bad, what happens to me now
I know for sure that we’ve been changed somehow
And we’ll be the glory of our King
In His kingdom come

We’ve been to the mountaintop
We’ve seen the glory of our God
He is here in the valley low
He’s here I feel it in my bones
Our God here and now
We are the body of our God

We build our temples
We build our walls
But they can’t hold Him in
We are the temple of our God
But we can’t hold Him in

We’ve been to the mountaintop
We’ve seen the glory of our God
He is here in the valley low
He’s here I feel it in my bones
Our God here and now
We are the body of our God
