I'm pressing on the upward way, New heights I'm gaining every day; Still praying as I'm onward bound, Lord, plant my feet on higher ground. Lord, lift me up and let me stand, by faith on heaven's table land, A higher plane than I have found; Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

My heart has no desire to stay, Where doubts arise and fears dismay; Tho' some may dwell where these abound, My prayer, my aim, is higher ground. Lord, lift me up and let me stand, by faith on heaven's table land, A higher plane than I have found; Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

I want to live above the world, Tho' 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 table land, 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. Lord, lift me up and let me stand, by faith on heaven's table land, A higher plane than I have found; Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
