Higher Ground
Soaring Faith: Ascending to Higher Ground with The John Marshall Family
Lyrics
I'm pressing on the upward way
I am progressing on a positive and upward path in life.
New heights I'm gaining ev'ry day
I am continuously reaching new levels or achievements.
Still praying as I'm onward bound
While moving forward, I am still engaged in prayer.
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground
I ask the Lord to establish me on a higher spiritual plane.
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
I request the Lord to lift me up and provide a stable foundation.
By faith, on heaven's tableland
This lifting up is based on faith and is on a heavenly plateau.
A higher plane than I have found
A level of existence or understanding higher than what I have experienced.
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground
I repeat the plea for the Lord to establish me on this higher ground.
My heart has no desire to stay
I have no desire to remain in a place where doubts and fears prevail.
Where doubts arise and fears dismay
Averse to staying where uncertainties and anxieties trouble me.
Though some may dwell where these abound
Some people may choose to reside where doubts and fears are present.
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground
My sincere prayer and goal are to reach a spiritually elevated state.
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
Continuing the request for the Lord to lift me up and provide stability.
By faith, on heaven's tableland
This elevation is achieved through faith on a heavenly plane.
A higher plane than I have found
Desiring a level of existence higher than my current state.
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground
Reiterating the plea to be established on this higher spiritual ground.
I want to scale the utmost height
Expressing the desire to reach the highest point and experience divine glory.
And catch a gleam of glory bright
Aiming to perceive a bright and glorious aspect of spirituality.
But still I'll pray till heav'n I've found
Despite this aspiration, I will continue praying until I reach heaven.
Lord, lead me on to higher ground
Requesting the Lord to guide me to even higher spiritual realms.
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
Repeating the request for the Lord to lift me up and provide stability.
By faith, on heaven's tableland
This lifting up is once again emphasized to be through faith on a heavenly plane.
A higher plane than I have found
Reaffirming the desire for a higher plane of existence.
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground
Renewing the plea for the Lord to establish me on this elevated spiritual ground.
