Higher Ground
written by Thomas Whitfield and Rev. Jasper Williams
VERSE ONE
I'm pressing on the upward way
New heights I'm gaining every day
Still praying as I onward bound
Plant my feet on higher ground
VERSE TWO
My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay
Thought somw may dwell where these abound
My prayer, my aim is higher ground
CHORUS
Lord lift me up and let me stand
By faith, on heaven's table land
A higher plane that I have found
Plant my feet on higher ground (higher ground)
VERSE THREE
I want to live above the world
Though Satan's darts at me are hurled
For faith has caught a joyful sound, hey Lord
The song of saints on higher ground (higher ground) (back to chorus)
SPECIAL
Lord, lift me up
Jesus lift me up; just lift us
Oh, oh, yes
Lord lift me up
Jesus lift me up; just lift us
