And truth amazed you is the vision
Higher ground, on higher ground
To stand on
To show that love had saved you
Higher ground, on higher ground
Your life on
Your determined words dance on my heart
Build your house where love resounds
Something of worth to live
See your purpose from higher ground
Your laughing smile and brilliant eyes
Higher ground, on higher ground
Your empty eyes and hollow smile
Something of worth to live
Complement your vacant stare
Higher ground, on higher ground
Build your house where love resounds
There's something more
To stand on
See your purpose from higher ground
Higher ground, on higher ground
Build your house where love resounds
Higher ground, on higher ground
Your life on
Higher ground, on higher ground
Build your house where love resounds
See your purpose from higher ground
Face streaked with the crystal glow of tears
There's something more
I will take with me wherever I go
The sight of you on your feet
Higher ground, on higher ground
See your purpose from higher ground
Remind me why I'm here
You're like a conscience in my ear
Higher ground, on higher ground
