Climb Every Mountain
Guy Sebastian Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Climb every mountain
Search high and low
Follow every highway
Every path you know

Ooh, yeah

Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every rainbow
'Till you find your dream

A dream that will need
All the love you can give
Every day of your life
For as long as you live

Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every rainbow
'Till you find your place

Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every mountain (every mountain)
Don't you ever give up, no ohh
Climb every mountain (every mountain)
There's a brighter day on the other side




Follow every rainbow
'Till you find your dream

When it’s triple the number- it means it’s intensified as a responsible maternal care giver

Hopefully you can understand a little more about numerology and Pythagorean’s theory 🙏🏻

This performance was what won Guy Australian Idol. Still sends shivers down my spine. Hands down the best performance ever on Australian Idol along with Anthony Calleas The Prayer

I remember that night! I was in Australia 2003 and was down and depressed. I was struggling to find work and my ex husband was on extra long hours at work and trips to the supermarket and meeting other women. I sat watching this, with tears my eyes, and goosebumps and hope in my heart that things were going to get better! His winning song was angels brought me here! Such a spiritual experience! Nameste 🙏🏻

My husband and I sat enraptured as this song poured out of Guy. Suddenly, tears sprang to both our eyes and we had what felt like a "religious experience" - the way he sang it was deeply moving and it deserves a 5-star rating. Unforgettable!

@raythespian

This is the best version of this song I have ever heard. This guy is a real singer, with professional phrasing and improvisation. Absolutely thrilling. Blows the Dutchgirls away.

@aly543

20 years on and still get the chills and tears and of course guy is still strong then ever

@AnthonyPeterson

This is my favorite Idol moment ever - for so many reasons. Guy showed the world what he is made off. I cant imagine any other performer taking a such a tame song and making it his own. This guy brought Australia to its knees crying, because the song became HIS journey - He is the dude that climbed every mountain, he put up with people mocking his virginity and his religion and sent those accusations back to the pit where it came from. Total inspiration.
