Hymn 814
I'M PRESSING ON THE UPWARD WAY
I'm pressing on the upward way.
New heights I'm gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound.
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
Chorus:
Lord, lift me up and let me stand.
By faith, on Heaven's table-land;
Where love, and joy, and light abound.
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise, and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where those abound.
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground. Chorus
Beyond the mist I fain would rise.
To rest beneath unclouded skies,
Above earth's turmoil peace is found.
By those who dwell on higher ground. Chorus
I long to scale the utmost height;
Though rough the way, and hard the fight,
My song, while climbing, shall resound.
Lord, lead me on to higher ground. Chorus
Lord, lead me up the mountain side
I dare not climb without my Guide;
And, heaven gained, I'll gaze around,
With grateful heart from higher ground. Chorus
