Lyrics of Higher Ground by Stevie Wonder

verse

People, keep on learning
Soldiers, keep on warring
World, keep on turning
'Cause it won't be too long

verse

Powers, keep on lying
While your people keep on dying
World, keep on turning
'Cause it won't be too long

chorus

I'm so darn glad he let me try it again
Because my last time on Earth, I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on trying
'Til I reach my highest ground

verse

Teachers, keep on teaching
Preachers, keep on preaching
World, keep on turning
'Cause it won't be too long
Oh no

verse

Lovers, keep on loving
Believers, keep on believing
Sleepers, just stop sleeping
'Cause it won't be too long
Oh no

chorus

I'm so glad that he let me try it again
'Cause my last time on Earth, I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on trying
'Til I reach my highest ground
Woo

outro

'Til I reach my highest ground
No one's gonna bring me down
Oh no
'Til I reach my highest ground
Don't you let nobody bring you down (they'll sure 'nuff try)
God is gonna show you highest ground-
Writer(s): Stevie Wonder
