*Capo on the 5th fret*

*Must play moderatly fast*

G5                          C5
I m pressing on the upward way
                G5             D5
New heights I'm gaining every day
              G5           C5
Still praying as I onward bound
                G5       D5      G5
"Lord, plant my feet on higher ground."


Chorus:

G5                           C5
Lord, lift me up and let me stand
            G5              D5
By faith on heaven's table land
         G5                 C5
A higher plane than I have found
               G5       D5      G5
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

G5                         C5
My heart has no desire to stay
             G5               D5                   
Where doubts arise and fears dismay
              G5                 C5
Tho' some may dwell where these abound
              G5      D5      G5
My prayer, my aim is higher ground.


Chorus

G5                        C5
I want to live above the world
             G5               D5
Tho' satan's darts at me are hurled
              G5                 C5
For faith has caught the joyful sound
            G5         D5      G5
The song of saints on higher ground.


Chorus

G5                          C5
I want to scale the utmost height
            G5              D5
And catch a gleam of glory bright
               G5                     C5
But still I'll pray till heaven I've found
               G5     D5      G5
"Lord, lead me on to higher ground."


Chorus
