Higher Ground (Gabriel) - A Cappella Hymn
[00:00.20] I’m pressing on the upward way,
[00:04.45] New heights I’m gaining every day;
[00:08.44] Still praying as I’m upward bound,
[00:12.67] “Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
[00:16.66] Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
[00:20.64] By faith, on Heaven’s table land,
[00:24.89] A higher plane than I have found;
[00:28.88] Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
[00:34.19] My heart has no desire to stay
[00:37.92] Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
[00:41.91] Though some may dwell where these abound,
[00:45.89] My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
[00:50.41] Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
[00:54.37] By faith, on Heaven’s table land,
[00:58.38] A higher plane than I have found;
[01:02.42] Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
[01:07.13] I want to live above the world,
[01:11.38] Though satan’s darts at me are hurled;
[01:15.63] For faith has caught the joyful sound,
[01:19.62] The song of saints on higher ground.
[01:23.60] Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
[01:27.85] By faith, on Heaven’s table land,
[01:31.84] A higher plane than I have found;
[01:35.82] Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
[01:40.62] I want to scale the utmost height
[01:44.56] And catch a gleam of glory bright;
[01:48.81] But still I’ll pray till Heav’n I’ve found,
[01:52.79] “Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”
[01:57.05] Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
[02:01.03] By faith, on Heaven’s table land,
[02:05.01] A higher plane than I have found;
[02:09.26] Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
[02:14.28] AMEN!
