Higher Ground Lyrics by David Meece

Forever

0

[Chorus]
Lift me up to higher ground
Lift me up, I'm sinking down
And I know the water's cold
And I might drown
Oh, Lord, lift me up to higher ground

[Verse 1]
I feel the night closin' in
I feel the tide risin' again
And serenity slippin' away from me, oh no
The sea of life, it batters the shore
The water's higher than ever before
Gotta find me a way to get out of here
Gotta find me a way to get past the fear

[Chorus]
Lift me up to higher ground
Lift me up, I'm sinking down
And I know the water's cold
And I might drown
Oh, Lord, lift me up to higher ground

[Verse 2]
I've done my best, I still can't win
And there's no rest from the state I'm in
Insecurity's getting the best of me, oh no
I see the light on a distant shore
But I'm too tired to row anymore
Won't You give me the strength to get through the rain?
Won't You show me the way to get home again?

[Chorus]
Lift me up to higher ground
Lift me up, I'm sinking down
And I know the water's cold
And I might drown
Oh, Lord, lift me up to higher ground

[Chorus]
Lift me up to higher ground
Before my soul starts sinking down
And I know the water's cold
And I might drown
Lord, lift me up to higher ground

[Chorus]
Lift me up to higher ground
Lift me up, I'm sinking down
And I know the water's cold
And I might drown
Oh, Lord, lift me up to higher ground

[Chorus]
Lift me up to higher ground
Lift me up, I'm sinking down
And I know the water's cold
And I might drown
Oh, Lord, lift me up to higher ground

[Chorus]
Lift me up to higher ground
Lift me up, I'm sinking down
And I know the water's cold
And I might drown
Oh, Lord, lift me up to higher ground
