Higher Ground Lyrics
[Verse 1]
People keep on learning
Soldiers keep on warring
World keep on turning
‘Cause it won’t be too long
[Verse 2]
Powers keep on lying
While your people keep on dying
World keep on turning
‘Cause it won’t be too long
[Chorus]
I’m so darn glad he let me try it again
Because my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin
I’m so glad that I know more than I knew then
Going to keep on trying
‘Til I reach my highest ground
[Verse 3]
Teachers keep on teaching
Preachers keep on preaching
World keep on turning
‘Cause it won’t be too long
Oh no
[Verse 4]
Lovers keep on loving
Believers keep on believing
Sleepers just stop sleeping
‘Cause it won’t be too long
Oh no
[Chorus]
I’m so glad that he let me try it again
‘Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin
I’m so glad that I know more than I knew then
Going to keep on trying
‘Til I reach my highest ground
