I was lost in the past tryna find the way
Every other turn was another mistake
Kept telling myself, man there ain't no doubt
If I can make it to the top, I can figure it out
I kept on climbing and wondering what I see
And when I made it up there, he was looking back at me
Ooh I saw Jesus when I looked out over the smoky mountains
I had to pinch myself 'cause it took my breath away
Yeah the sky was the color of cotton candy
Never seen a sunset quite so dandy
Miles and miles of navy blue
And every shade of every hue
Ooh I saw Jesus when I looked out over the smoky mountains
I had to pinch myself 'cause it took my breath away
I saw Jesus when I looked out over the smoky mountains
And I ain't never gonna be the same
Ain't never gonna be the same
I felt a peace coming over me
And I just can't explain
I never met that man, in my life
But somehow I knew his name
Ooh I saw Jesus when I looked out over the smoky mountains
I had to pinch myself 'cause it took my breath away
I saw Jesus when I looked out over the smoky mountains
And I ain't never gonna be the same
I ain't never gonna be the same
Ooh I saw Jesus when I looked out over the smoky mountains
