New hights I'm gaining ev'ry day,
Still praying as I'm onward bound,
"Lord, plant my feet on higher ground".
Lord, lift me up and let me stand.
Men
By faith on heaven's table-land;
All
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
Women
Lift me up and let me stand by faith,
Lord plant my feet on higher ground, on higher ground.
Lift me up and let me stand by faith,
Lord plant my feet on higher ground, on higher ground.
Men
My heart has no desire to stay,
Where doubts arise and fears dismay.
Tho' some may dwell where these abound,
My pray'r, my air, is higher gound.
By faith on heaven's table-land;
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
I want to live, above the world,
Tho' Satan's darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.
By faith on heaven's table-land;
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
Lift me up to a higher ground.
I want to scale, the utmost height,
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I'll pray 'til heav'n I've found,
Lord lead me on to higher ground.
By faith on heaven's table-land;
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
Lift me up to a higher ground.
Lord plant my feet on higher ground!
But still I'll pray 'til heav'n I've found,
Lord lead me on to higher ground.
