Gospel Music - Higher Ground Chords

Capo 2.


[Intro]

G C D


[Verse 1]

G                          C 
I'm pressing on the upward way
                G             D
New heights I'm gaining every day
G                           C
Still praying as I'm onward bound
               G        D        G  
"Lord, plant my feet on higher ground


[Chorus]

G                           C
Lord, lift me up and let me stand 
            G              D
By faith on heaven's table land
G                          C
A higher plane than I have found
               G       D        G
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground


[Verse 2]

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


[Verse 3]

G                        C
I want to live above the world 
             G               D
Tho' Satan's darts at me are hurled 
G                               C
For faith has caught the joyful sound
            G         D        G
The song of saints on higher ground


[Verse 4]

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