Higher Ground

Intro

Sound of a vinyl scratch, then a deep melodic synth builds up

Yeah.

It’s not by my might.

Not by my power.

But by Your Spirit.

Let’s go.

Chorus

I’m looking up, I see the King on the throne

Heady in the clouds, but my faith is the stone

I was in the valley, now I’m standing on the peak

Strength in my spirit when the flesh is feeling weak

I’m on that higher ground (Ground)

Yeah, that higher ground (Ground)

Lost and then I’m found (Found)

He wears the crown (Crown).

Verse

Look, I used to run from the light, preferred the shade

Built my own house on the sand, watched it fade

But the Architect stepped in, redesigned the plan

Took the heart of stone, put the Spirit in the man

Now I’m walking on the water, Peter with the focus

He multiplied the bread, yeah, the hocus pocus—nah

That’s real miracles, grace in the physical

Faith isn’t logical, it’s supernatural, critical

I don't need a diamond chain to show you that I’m shining

I just need the Word of God, the perfect silver lining

They told me "get the bag," I told ‘em "get the soul"

Because what’s a billionaire if he’s losing all control?

Chorus

I’m looking up, I see the King on the throne

Heady in the clouds, but my faith is the stone

I was in the valley, now I’m standing on the peak

Strength in my spirit when the flesh is feeling weak

I’m on that higher ground (Ground)

Yeah, that higher ground (Ground)

Lost and then I’m found (Found)

He wears the crown (Crown).

Verse

Beat thins out, more aggressive delivery

Yeah, the enemy is plotting, but the Lord is my defense

I don't lean on understanding, nah, it doesn't make sense

How a Cross bought my freedom, how the blood paid the debt

I’m a son of the Most High, why would I ever fret?

I’m putting on the armor, belt of truth, chest plate

Narrow is the path, I’m walking through the straight gate

If they hate the message, let ‘em hate, I’m okay

I’m just a messenger delivering the Bread of Life today

No weapon formed against me—man, you know how it goes

I got the Lion of Judah to defeat all my foes

From the 305 to the ends of the earth

I’m preaching salvation and the second birth.

Bridge

Melodic, slow tempo

Elevate... elevate...

Take me higher than my sins

Elevate... elevate...

This is where the life begins.

Chorus

I’m looking up, I see the King on the throne

Heady in the clouds, but my faith is the stone

I was in the valley, now I’m standing on the peak

Strength in my spirit when the flesh is feeling weak

I’m on that higher ground (Ground)

Yeah, that higher ground (Ground)

Lost and then I’m found (Found)

He wears the crown (Crown).

Outro

Yeah.

Higher Ground.

2026 vision.

Keep your eyes on the Son.

We out.

Beat fades out with a final echoing piano chord
