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.”

Was thinking about my life and everything that was and the things that are to come and this song popped into my head. I am now comforted that He sees and knows my desires and will always see me through.

This song was poured into my spirit via the Holy spirit while l was praying.
The Lord wants us to trust and depend on Him, not on mere man, who is here today and but gone tomorrow.
Man will fail, but Jesus will never fail.
To you listening to this awesome hymn be encouraged turn the words into a prayer point for elevation and decorating.
You belong to the army of the Lord and not Satan.
Whose mission is 3 fold: Kill, Steal and Destroy.
I pray that you will aim for higher ground and leave the lower where Satan dwells. Re programme you mind for heavenly riches and to be a blessing.
You will no longer slumber but you will arise and shine in the precious name of Jesus. Be encouraged and live a triumphant life until you are called for glory. Amen.

Lord plant my feet on higher ground. A higher ground than I have found in Jesus name. I cannot climb without my guide. Please my Jesus see me through this year 2015 and beyond in Jesus Name. Amen. With You I will succeed and I will not fail in Jesus Name. I will be fruitful, I will brake forth, no more sorrow, the joy of the Lord shall be my strength in Jesus Name. From henceforth, I will celebrate, I will jubilate, I will progress, I will be victorious in Jesus Name. Thanks for uploading this song and God bless you all. Shalom!!!

Thanks to the almighty Holy Spirit that inspired the writer to compose this song. Thanks for uploading it with piano playing along as I sang it. I can't explain my feeling within. Jesus is Lord and King indeed. God bless you all richly.
