3 4 5 6 6 -5 5 -5
I'm pressing on the up-ward way,
3 -3 -4 -5 -5 5 -4 5
New heights I'm gaining e-v'ry day;
6 6 5 4 5 -4 4 -3bb
Still praying as I'm on-ward bound,
-4 4 -3bb 3 4 5 -4 4
"Lord, plant my-- feet on higher ground."
Refrain
3 4 5 6 6 -5 5 -5
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
3 -3 -4 -5 -5 5 -4 5
By faith, on Heaven's table land,
6 6 5 4 5 -4 4 -3bb
A higher plane than I- have found;
-4 4 -3bb 3 4 5 -4 4
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.
Repeat Refrain
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.
Repeat Refrain
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, plant my feet on higher ground."
Repeat Refrain
