1 We are climbing Jacob’s ladder,
we are climbing Jacob’s ladder,
we are climbing Jacob’s ladder,
we are climbing on.
2 Ev'ry round goes higher, higher,
ev'ry round goes higher, higher,
ev'ry round goes higher, higher,
we are climbing on.
3 If I stumble, will you help me?
If I stumble, will you help me?
If I stumble, will you help me?
We are climbing on.
4 Though the road is steep and rugged,
though the road is steep and rugged,
though the road is steep and rugged,
we are climbing on.
