Lyrics
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.
People keep on learning
Soldiers keep on warring
World keep on turning
Because it won't be too long
Powers keep on lying
While your people keep on dying
Worldkeep on turning
Because it won't be too long
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
Gonna keep on trying
'till i reach the highest ground
Teachers keep on teaching
Preachers keep on preaching
World keep on turning
Because it won't be too long
Lovers keep on loving
While believers keep on believing
Sleepers just stop sleeping
Because it won't be too long
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
Gonna keep on trying
'till i reach the highest ground
