Higher Ground

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You've been my inspiration

And I've loved you or so long

And in my times of desperation

I was weak and your love made me strong

So in those times when you can't stop

The rain from falling

When you raise your voice

And think, no one hears you calling

When you need someone

And you think you've looked everywhere

You better think again

`Cause I'll be there

I'll be standing on higher ground

When the water's getting deep

And there's no one else around

I`ll be standing on higher ground

I'll be there for you I will care for you

I swear to you I won't let you down

Higher ground is the place I found

Through the love you gave me

When I was down

(And) the highest part in every heart

Is when you give to someone else

Without thinking of yourself

I'll be standing on higher ground

When the water's getting deep

And there's no one else around

I`ll be standing on higher ground

I'll be there for you I will care for you

I swear to you I won't let you down

And in my times of desperation

When I was weak your love made me strong

So in those times when you can't stop

The rain from falling

When you raise your voice

And think, no one hears you calling

When you need someone

And you think you've looked everywhere

You better think again

`Cause I'll be there

I'll be standing on higher ground

When the water's getting deep

And there's no one else around

I`ll be standing on higher ground

I'll be there for you I will care for you

I swear to you I won't let you down

These hands were made to help you

Just to touch you and to give

All the love that you've been giving me

And in my heart is whre you live
