Higher Ground Songtext
von Claire Holley
Higher Ground Songtext
I′m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I'm gaining every day;
Still praying as I′m onward bound,
"Lord, plant my feet on higher ground."
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven's tableland,
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 those abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
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, plant my feet on higher ground."
New heights I'm gaining every day;
Still praying as I′m onward bound,
"Lord, plant my feet on higher ground."
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven's tableland,
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 those abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
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, plant my feet on higher ground."
