[D] [A]
[D]
I'm pressing on the upward wave
New [Gm] heights [D] I'm gaining every
[A] day
[Bm] Still [C#m] [D] praying I
[F#m] honor
[G]
Lord, count my [D] feet [A] on high
[A]
[D]
Lord, lift me up, [F#m] let me [G] stand
[D] By [D#] faith [Em] in [F#m] [G] [G#]
[D] heaven's stable and [B] [A] higher [D] plain
Than [A]
[D] I have found
Lord, count my feet on [A] higher
[D]
ground
My heart [A] has no [D]
desire [G] to stay
Where doubts [D]
arise and [Bm] fears [A] dismay
Though [Bm] some [D] may dwell where [F#m] those [G] abound
My prayer, my [A] [D] aim is found
So Lord, lift me up, [F#m] let [G] me stand
By faith in [Em] [E]
[A] heaven's [D] stable and [Bm] [A]
higher [D] [A] plain
[Bm] Than [A] I [G] have found
[D] Lord, count my feet on higher [A] [D]
ground
I want to [A] [D] live above the [G]
world
Though [D] Satan's [A] darts [D] at me [A] out
For faith [D] has called a [F#m]
[G] joyful sound
[D] The song [Em] of [A] saints [D] on high
[A]
[D] So Lord, lift me up, let [G] me stand
By [A] faith [G] in [A] [G]
[A] heaven's stable [D]
and [Bm] [A] higher [D] plain
Than I have [G]
found
Lord, count my [D]
feet on higher [A] [C] [D] ground
So Lord, lift me up, let [G] me stand
By faith in [Em]
[Am] heaven's stable [D] and [Bm] [A]
higher [D] plain
Than [F#m] I have [G]
found
[Em] Lord, count my [D] feet on higher [A]
[D] ground
I want my tomorrow to be better than my [G] today
I want the way that I relate with God
[Em] The way that I communicate, interact [D] with [A] Him
[D] To be on another level
I want this to be your prayer as well
That even if some way, somehow [G] you strayed
You've trespassed
[A] You've gone contrary to God's [D] words
[A] There is still a higher ground for you to go to
[D] Be encouraged to do more for God than you [Em] did yesterday Amen
