New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,

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.”

Lord plant my feet on higher ground. A higher ground than I have found in Jesus name. I cannot climb without my guide. Please my Jesus see me through this year 2015 in Jesus Name. Amen. With You I will succeed in Jesus Name. Thanks for uploading this song and God bless you all. Shalom!

Something popped this song into my heart while I was meditating and asking for GOD'S Forgiveness. Don't know the words, but the piano made the best interpretation of the song. Dear LORD please help me in pressing on the upward way!

I love this song so much, I got up this morning and the song keeps ringing in my brain over and over again, Lord plant my feet on higher ground. May God bless all those who put the song together to make it a reality.
