Lyrics
Take my hand
Move on up the mountain
Don't look back
At the world we left behind
Don't you know this path is full of changes?
Take my hand
Take my hand
Walk with me.
Feet in the dust
One step at a time
Higher and higher
The air is so fine.
If you need a rest
We can stop by the stream
We can drink moving water
And we can dream.
If you need a rest
We can stop by the stream
We can drink moving water and dream.
((Chorus))
Put your hands in the dirt
Deep and black
Deep and black.
Put your hands in the dirt
Deep and black
Deep and black.
It's where we live (deep and black)
It's where we live (deep and black)
It's where we live (deep and black)
You and me
Deep and black
You and me.
(Repeat chorus, verses, ad lib)
Move on up the mountain
Don't look back
At the world we left behind
Don't you know this path is full of changes?
Take my hand
Take my hand
Walk with me.
Feet in the dust
One step at a time
Higher and higher
The air is so fine.
If you need a rest
We can stop by the stream
We can drink moving water
And we can dream.
If you need a rest
We can stop by the stream
We can drink moving water and dream.
((Chorus))
Put your hands in the dirt
Deep and black
Deep and black.
Put your hands in the dirt
Deep and black
Deep and black.
It's where we live (deep and black)
It's where we live (deep and black)
It's where we live (deep and black)
You and me
Deep and black
You and me.
(Repeat chorus, verses, ad lib)

Wow! I really like this!
The vocal harmonies are fantastic and the pacing and performance of the dominant vocal is extremely interesting and well executed. The section with the hand claps sounds like a full-fledged folk revival session! The lyrics have a tasty gospel quality.
Very, very nice piece!
