1 Iām pressing on the upward way,
New heights Iām gaining ev’ry day;
Still praying as Iām onward bound,
āLord, plant my feet on higher ground.ā
Refrain:
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heavenās tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
2 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. [Refrain]
3 I want to live above the world,
Though Satanās darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught a joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground. [Refrain]
4 I want to scale the utmost height,
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still Iāll pray till heavān Iāve found,
āLord, lead me on to higher ground.ā [Refrain]
