Higher Ground Songtext / Lyric

Your smile cuts through a smoky room

Chasing silence from the air

Your empty eyes and hollow smile

Complement your vacant stare



There's something more

To stand on

Something of worth to live

Your life on



Higher ground, on higher ground

Build your house where love resounds

Higher ground, on higher ground

See your purpose from higher ground



Your determined words dance on my heart

You're like a conscience in my ear

Your laughing smile and brilliant eyes

Remind me why I'm here






There's something more

To stand on

Something of worth to live

Your life on



Higher ground, on higher ground

Build your house where love resounds

Higher ground, on higher ground

See your purpose from higher ground



Higher ground, on higher ground

Build your house where love resounds

Higher ground, on higher ground

See your purpose from higher ground



The sight of you on your feet

Face streaked with the crystal glow of tears

To show that love had saved you

And truth amazed you is the vision

I will take with me wherever I go



Higher ground, on higher ground

See your purpose from higher ground

Higher ground, on higher ground

Build your house where love resounds



Higher ground, on higher ground

See your purpose from higher ground
