New heights I'm gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
"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 these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is 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.

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."

In this world today, I realize in order to stand, you need the Lord to lift you up daily, so you can stand the test of the times. thank You Jesus for lifting me.

i have always long to see Him (God) because He is the higher ground. When I plant feet on His I will not stumble neither slumber, sin will give way to Godliness. Lord help me to attain that higher ground where You alone dwells.
