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.”
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.
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
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;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

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.
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints 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.”
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”

I had a burning desire to sing this hymn from the Sacred Songs and Solos (SS and S) but was disappointed when I couldn't find it, so my spirit told me to check on Google which I did and found it. I'm now at peace and satisfied that I found it, and sang it twice. To God be the glory 🙏.

Was just meditating by the sea side when the song rang in my heart and I just wanted to remember the lyrics and couldn't, so I consulted Google.

I was singing this beautiful song in the dream and woke up and have to check it out to continue in the physical.
It shall be a glorious day for me as I Press On The Upward Way. The Lord will definitely Plant My Feet On Higher Grounds.
