English Lyrics
Verse 1
I'm pressing on the upward way, New heights I'm gaining everyday; Still praying as I onward bound, 'Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.'
Chorus
Lord, lift me up, and I shall stand By faith, on heaven's table land; 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;nThough some may dwell where these abound, My prayer, my aim is higher ground.
Verse 3
I want to live above the world, Though Satan's darts at me arenhurled; 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.'
