I gotta try to do right
When life's doing me wrong
Gotta shake the dust off my feet and
Keep marchin' on

When trouble weighs me down
Brings me to my knees
Lord my needs are many
But that's a pretty yeah, a pretty
Good place to be

Don't blame it on the preacher
Cause the preacher done told
The devil's got a target
On my heart and my soul
But let me tell you brother
What the devil don't know
The lower I go
The more gonna lift you

I'm gonna lift you
(Higher)
God almighty
You are worthy
(Higher)

I may never get money
I may never have fame
But if I'm ever in the spotlight
I'll point it back your way

Standing at the top
Was never ever my goal
But if you put me on a mountain
Then I'll tell the whole world
Singing hallelujar
Till I hit the dirt

I'm gonna lift you
(Higher)
I'm gonna lift you
(Higher)
God almighty
You are worthy
(Higher)

(Hallelujah
He is worthy
Hallelujah
He is good)
Leave me in rags and ruins
And I'll praise you through it
Clothe me in glory
