The protagonist is singing about a difficult challenge or mountain that he's facing in his life, and how he's turning to God for help.

The chorus emphasizes that sometimes it takes a difficult experience like a mountain or a desert to really trust and believe in God, and that God's love is stronger than any problem we may face.
