My heart has no desire to
Stay where doubts arise
And fears dismay.
Though we must dwell
Where these are bound
I must go on to higher ground.

I want to scale the
Utmost hight and catch
A gleam of glory bright.
For faith has caught
The joyful sound,
The song of life on higher ground.

Lord, lift me up
And let me stand my feet
On heaven´s stable land.
Oh, greater plane
That I have found.
Oh, plant my feet on higher ground.

I´m treading on the
Upward way, new hights
I´m gaining every day,
Still praying as I´m homeward bound:
Oh, plant my feet on higher ground.
