New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“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 rest I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”

Our family devotion today on "Pressing On" from Daily Fountain Devotional impacted us for greater tomorrow through Christ.
With Christ, there are more for us in the future than what yesterday has offered us. New heights we attain everyday.
We googled the hymn and it added values and blessings to us.
