Lyrics

Chorus I'm moving on, can't nothing stop me now
I'm pressing on to higher ground
Each step I take is the new dawning of
A brand new day for higher ground

[Kim burrell] obstacles and situations
People, places and things
I must overcome for there's a battle to be won
With my mind set on higher things, these things have become my footstool
I'm determined to reach my goal, I need peace for my soul oh

Chorus

[Yolonda adams] I'm pressing on the upward way
Brand new heights I'm gaining everyday
No higher place that I really have found

[Marymary] lord, plant my feet on higher ground
Forgetting what is already behind me
I'm moving forward to what's ahead

Chorus

[Dorinda clark-cole] the race is not given to the swift
Nor the battle to the strong
But it's to the one that endureth
But we gotta stand strong and fight on

[Karen] sometimes you feel like your foot might slip
Cause there's too much going on
Just realize your goal is greater than your struggle
Hold on and be strong

[Chorus twice]

[Karen and dorinda] be strong and fight on
But by all means keep moving on

[Missy elliott] I'm a witness (tweet: I'm a witness)
For jesus (tweet: nobody but jesus)
When I was down and no one was there
He picked me up and he carried me (tweet: oh he carried me)
I'm a witness (tweet: I'm a witness)
For jesus (tweet: nobody but jesus)
When I was down and no one was there
He picked me up and he carried me (tweet: oh he carried me)
