I’m pressing on the upward way,
C G
New heights I’m gaining every day;
G7 C F
Still praying as I’m onward bound,
C G7 C
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
C G7
Lord, lift me up, and I shall stand
C
By faith, on heaven’s table-land;
C F
A higher plane than I have found;
C G7 C
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
[[Full Lyrics]]
[Verse 1]
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.”
[Refrain]
Lord, lift me up, and I shall stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
[Verse 2]
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.
[Verse 3]
I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.
[Verse 4]
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.”
