Higher Ground - Tammy Wynette

I’m safe 'cause your love lifts me to a higher ground

(Higher ground)

To a higher ground

Well, I have sat alone at night

And cried myself to sleep

And I have prayed my soul to take

When sorrow seems so deep

But darkness turns so quickly

To the light of day

When someone special came along

And carried me away

You lift me up when I get down

When I’m lost you turn me around

Wind and rain can’t wash away

The peace you give to me

And in a sea of trouble

I know that I won’t drown

I’m safe 'cause your love

Lifts me to a higher ground (higher ground)

To a higher ground

Troubled times may bring me down

And drive me to my knees

And I am blinded by despair

And cannot see

But you take a hold

And carry me again

Then I know I’ll never break

Though I sometimes bend

You lift me up when I get down

When I’m lost you turn me around

Wind and rain can’t wash away

The peace you give to me

And in a sea of trouble

I know that I won’t drown

I’m safe 'cause your love

Lifts me to a higher ground (higher ground)

To a higher ground
