Higher Ground

I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every 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.
I want to scale the utmost height,
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till heaven I’ve found
“Lord, lead me on to 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.
