Текст песни Higher Ground (Iris Dement) с переводом

1. I??? m pressing on the upward way,

New heights I??? m gaining every day;

Still praying as I??? m onward bound,

???Lord, plant my feet on higher ground???

Lord, lift me up and let me stand,

By faith, on Heaven??? s tableland,

A higher plane than I have found;

Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

2. 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.

3. I want to live above the world,

Though Satan??? s darts at me are hurled;

For faith has caught the joyful sound,

The song of saints on higher ground.

4. I want to scale the utmost height

And catch a gleam of glory bright;

But still I??? ll pray till heav??? n I??? ve found,

???Lord, plant my feet on higher ground???
