HIGHER GROUND


I'm pressing on the upward way
New heights I'm gaining ev'ry day
Still praying as I onward bound
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground

Chorus:
Lord, lift me up and let me stand
By faith, on heaven's table land
A higher plane than I have found
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground

My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay
Though some may dwell where these abound
My prayer, my aim is higher ground (chorus)

I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright
But still I'll pray till heav'n I've found
Lord, lead me me on to higher ground (chorus)
