Lyrics:

Mmhmm mmmmh
Oh, yeah yeah yeah
Oh, mmhmm
I'm moving, higher ground
I'm moving on, can't nothing stop me now (mmm-yeah)
I'm pressing on (higher ground) to higher ground (mmh)
Each step I take (oooh) is a new dawning of (ohh, oh-ohh)
A brand-new day (higher ground) for higher ground
Obstacles and situations
People, places and things
I must overcome 'cause 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
I'm moving on (that's why I'm moving on) can't nothing stop me now
(I'm pressing on) I'm pressing on (to higher ground) to higher ground
Each step I take, ooh, bring a dawning (each step I take is a new dawning of)
For my higher place (a brand-new day)
On my higher ground (for higher ground)
I'm pressing on the upward way
Brand-new heights I'm gaining everyday
No higher place that I really have found
(Lord, plant my feet on) plant my feet on (on higher ground)
Forgetting what (forgetting what, is already behind me)
Is already be oh-ooh-oh-oh-woah
(I'm moving forward) moving ya yeah (for what's ahead)
I'm moving on can't nothing stop me now (nothing's gonna stop me)
I'm pressing on to higher ground (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Each step I take (oh-ho) is a new dawning of (yes, it is)
A brand-new day (yeah) for higher ground
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
Sometimes you feel like your foot might slip
'Cause there's too much going on
Just realize your goal is greater than your struggle
Just hold on and be strong
I'm moving on (I'm moving on) can't nothing stop me now
Nothing, no-no-no
I'm pressing on (oh-oh-oh) to higher ground (oh-ah-yeah-yeah)
Each step I take (oh is the dawning of a new day)
Is the new dawning of
A brand-new day (yeah-yeah) for higher ground
I'm moving on, can't, nothing stop me now
I'm pressing on to higher ground
Each step I take is a new dawning of
A brand-new day for higher ground
Be strong and fight on
But by all means, keep moving on
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)
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)
