Higher Ground

(album: Glee: The Music - The Complete Season Four - 2014)

[Mercedes:]
People keep on learning
Soldiers keep on warring
World keep on turning
Cause it won't be too long, no, no, ah, yeah

Powers keep on lying
While your people keep on dying, alright
World keep on turning
Cause it won't be too long, oh no, noo

I'm so darn glad 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
Till I reach the highest ground, oh, woah, yeah, ho!

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

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

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
Till I reach my highest ground...yeah, oh!
Till I reach my highest ground oh, yeah, no, no
No one's gonna bring me down
No, no, no, noo!
Till I reach my highest ground, ho! mhm, mhm
Don't you let nobody bring you down (they'll sho 'nuff try, ha)
God is gonna show you higher ground
