Key: FFBb
I'm pressing on the upward way,
FDmGm7/CC7
New heights I'm gaining every day;
FBb
Still praying as I onward bound,
F/CC7F
"Lord, plant my feet on higher ground."
FC7
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
F
By faith, on heaven's tableland
BbGmA higher plane than I have found;
F/CC7F
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.
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.
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.
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.
I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
