Higher Ground - Hebron Music

Higher Ground Author: Johnson Oatman Jr. Composer: Charles H. Gabriel Verse 1 I’m pressing on the upward way, New heights I’m gaining every day; Still praying as I onward bound, “Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.” Chorus Lord, lift me up, and let me 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 these abound, My prayer, my aim, is higher ground. Verse 3 I want to scale the utmost height, And catch a gleam of glory bright; But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found, “Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”
