Higher ground
I have fed the hunger
And I have scaled some walls
And I've witnessed so persistently
The distant thunder calls
But I'm anxious for the future,
The myths that hold me us down
Shouldn't we move to higher ground
And I'm movin' up to higher ground
Movin' up to higher ground
Maybe you will joing me
And we'll turn some hearts around
If we move on up to higher ground
The time is coming to move away from blame
To look beyond the faces,
To see beyond the names
And once that high way's got you
The greater truth is found
You keep movin' up to higher ground
And I'm movin' up to higher ground
Movin' up to higher ground
Maybe you will joing me
And we'll turn some hearts around
If we move on up to higher ground
Whatever will be lost
Is worth the letting go
And the treasures to be gained,
In time we'll know
And I'm movin' up to higher ground
