These times are heavy
And oh so dark
My world is breakin' apart
Lord, won't You lift me
I'm fallin' down
To Your higher ground

This road keeps stretchin'
It's been a while
I can't keep walkin' one more mile
You can see clearly, show me now
To Your higher ground

Higher ground above all the madness
Higher ground safe from the sadness
When I'm weary let my soul be found
On higher ground

Feels like I'm drownin'
In water too deep
Everyone's shoutin'
I can't hear me
Turn the volume
There's too much sound
I need higher ground

Higher ground above all the madness
Higher ground safe from the sadness
When I'm weary let my soul be found
On higher ground

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh

Higher ground above all the madness
Higher ground safe from the sadness
When I'm weary let my soul be found
On higher ground
When I'm weary let my soul be found
On higher ground
