[Verse 1]
G#m B
I gotta try to do right when life's doing me wrong
C#m E D#7
Gotta shake the dust off my feet and keep marchin' on
G#m B
When trouble weighs me down, and brings me to my knees
C#m
Lord, my needs are many, but that's a pretty
E D#7
Yeah a pretty good place to be
[Pre-Chorus]
G#m
Don't blame it on the preacher 'cuz the preacher done told
B
"The devil's got a target on my heart and my soul"
C#m
But let me tell you, brother, what the devil don't know
E D#7
The lower I go, the more I'm gonna lift you
[Chorus]

Higher, higher, higher

God Almighty, you are worthy
E D# G#m
Higher, higher, higher
[Verse 2]
G#m B
I may never get money, I may never have fame
C#m E D#7
But if I'm ever in the spotlight, I'll point it back your way
G#m
'Cuz standing at the top, was never my goal

But put me on a mountain and tell the whole world
E E D#7
Singing hallelujah 'til I hit the dirt, oh
