1
I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
2
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.
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
3
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.
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
4
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, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

It's my year of divine repositioning and this is my theme song. I will keep signing it everyday of the year until I experience a visible upliftment in my status.

I'm in a three days fasting and prayers and while in school my lil sister sent me a text asking how was the fast? And my reply was
And my reply was" I'm pressing on" and immediately I rushed to sing this song. That's my testimony this 2025.

Tonight in church I prayed and then this song came to me. I asked my choir director to sing it for me. This is my testimony for this season. Higher ground.

The Holy Spirit did the exact same thing for me, reminding me of this song when I was feeling particularly weak, and coming to 2025. Thank you Lord for lifting my gaze and spirit to look at You. You are my Overcoming Shepherd, and you remind me of the heavenly worship to come. Lift us up, Lord Jesus.
Thank you Holy Spirit for reminding me of this song as I cross over to 2025 it's means alot
