Higher ground, You set my feet upon higher ground
Above sinking sand
No storms of life can endanger me
Now that my feet are upon higher ground.

Your voice came sweetly and clear to me
I heard and stretched out my hand
You reached from heaven to rescue me
Lifted me up to stand on higher ground.

Some day Lord I'll need to stand
A warrior in an alien land
But most days Lord I just need to know
That my Father loves me so.
