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.”

Been singing this song in my heart for more than a week, wishing it would be the chosen hymn in church. This morning, I decided to look it up here and sing it fully. It delights my heart.

I woke up this morning with this song on my heart! Though it’s a familiar song, I looked it up to sing every word. It’s such a blessing to me this morning. I thank God for His inspiration and love as I build a closer relationship with him.

I am really blessed and reinvigorated this morning 🌄. I woke up with the song 🎵 ringing within me without getting the right lyrics. I found this and I am miraculously positioned. Many thanks and glory be to God Almighty always.

God bless you, Tracy from Jamaica. Your words were such a comfort to me in what I am currently going through and reminded me that when all seems lost, praising the Lord is the only remedy and will set my feet on higher ground!

This song came to me in middle of church. My pastor was talking about faith. My suprise is that I haven't heard this song for along time. God is good. Lord lift me up, plant my feet on a higher ground.
