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.”

This came up in me while praying just like you Erochukwu!! I had to smile because I know we are the family of God and the Spirit of God joins us together! I hadn’t heard this song in many years. It is my heart! ❤️

Walking down the street with my sister last night. Filled with thoughts of the future and fulfillment of destiny and this song began to sing in my spirit. I had to voice it out. Though I knew the lyrics before I found out I had lost the lyrics. So had to check it on net. And my spirit soars. Thank you.

I am always up lifted in the spirit whenever this song is rendered. To sing it on my own on the net is like taking control of all around me by the Holy Spirit.
