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 I want to scale the utmost height, for my heart has no desire to stay where doubt arise and fears trouble men.
Lord take me to a higher level, take me to a higher plan. Lord increase my faith, increase my fervency. Take me beyond where ever I have ever been and take me beyond myself.
This shall my prayer and my plea be.
For A higher level in you.
Amen
