"Higher Places" lyrics

It wasn't that long ago
You and I were sinking in the same old boat
Praying out, God please send some rope
S.O.S, I'm losing hope

I was feeling that, feeling that, low, low
Living that, living that, oh no
You stepped in and saved my soul
La dee up, and away we go to

Higher places, that's where we go
Higher places, look out below
He picked me up and set me down, right next to the throne
This world ain't got no hold on me, headed for streets of Gold
I'm going to higher places

Oh, ya know I ain't gotta wait
Now I got the code to the pearly gates
Got heaven right now, right here today
Ain't always been that way

I was feeling that, feeling that, low, low
Living that, living that, oh no
You stepped in and saved my soul
La dee up, and away we go to

Higher places, that's where we go
Higher places, look out below
He picked me up and set me down, right next to the throne
This world ain't got no hold on me, headed for streets of Gold
I'm going to higher places, higher places

Heaven bound, all around
I hear the angels singing
Let it rain, let it fall
Bring on that glory feeling
I was lost, now I'm found
And there's just one good reason
Ya let it rain, ya let it fall
You brought that holy healing

Higher places, that's where we go
Higher places, look out below
He picked me up and set me down, right next to the throne
This world ain't got no hold on me, headed for streets of Gold
I'm going to higher places, higher places
