KAREN CLARK SHEARD - Higher Ground lyrics

[Chorus] I'm moving on, Can't nothing stop me now

I'm pressing on to higher ground

Each step I take is the new dawning of

A brand new day for higher ground

[Kim Burrell] Obstacles and situations,

People, places and things

I must overcome for there's a battle to be won

With my mind set on higher things, these things have become my footstool

I'm determined to reach my goal, I need peace for my soul oh

[Chorus]

[Yolonda Adams] I'm pressing on the upward way

Brand new heights I'm gaining everyday

No higher place that I really have found

[MaryMary] Lord, plant my feet on higher ground

Forgetting what is already behind me

I'm moving forward to what's ahead

[Chorus]

[Dorinda Clark-Cole] The race is not given to the swift

Nor the battle to the strong

But it's to the one that endureth

But we gotta stand strong and fight on

[Karen] Sometimes you feel like your foot might slip

Cause there's too much going on

Just realize your goal is greater than your struggle

Hold on and be strong

[Chorus twice]

[Karen and Dorinda] Be strong and fight on

But by all means keep moving on

[Missy] I'm a witness (Other singers: I'm a witness)

For Jesus (Other singers: nobody but Jesus)

When I was down and no one was there

He picked me up and He carried me (Other singers: Oh He carried me)

I'm a witness (I'm a witness)

For Jesus (nobody but Jesus)

When I was down and no one was there

He picked me up and He carried me (Oh He carried me)
