Verse 1
I'm Pressing oCn the upward wFay,
New heights I'm gainCing every daGy;
Still praying aCs I'm onward boFund,
"Lord, Plant my feGet on higher grouCnd"
Chorus
Lord, lift me uCp and let me staGnd,
By faith, on heaGven's table laCnd,
A higher plCane than I have fouFnd;
Lord, plant my feGet on higher groCund
My heart has nCo desire to stFay
Where doubts arCise and fears disGmay;
Tho' some may dwCell where these abouFnd,
My prayer, my aGim, is higher groCund
Chorus
Lord, lift me uCp and let me staGnd,
By faith, on heaGven's table laCnd,
A higher plCane than I have fouFnd;
Lord, plant my feGet on higher groCund
I want to scCale the utmost heiFght,
And catch a gleCam of glory briGght;
But still I'll prCay till heav'n I've fouFnd,
"Lord, lead me oCn to higGher grouCnd"
