Author: William J. Pearson Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 17 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 43:3 First Line: Jesus, lead me up the mountain Refrain First Line: Lead me higher up the mountain Lyrics: 1 Jesus, lead me up the mountain,
Where the whitest robes are seen,
Where the saints can see the fountain,
Where the pure are keeping clean.
Refrain:
Lead me higher up the mountain,
Give me fellowship with Thee;
In Thy light I see the fountain,
And the blood is cleansing me.
2 Higher up, where light increases,
Rich above all earthly good,
Where the life of sinning ceases,
Where the Spirit comes in floods— [Refrain]
3 Lead me higher, nothing dreading,
In the race to never stop,
In Thy footsteps keep me treading,
Give me grace to reach the top. [Refrain]
4 Save me better, make me surer,
Put me where the fire refines,
Where the breath of hope is purer,
Where the brightest glory shines. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Jesus, lead me up the mountain] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Lead_Me_Higher); Gospel Publishing House, Full Gospel Songs (5); The Cyber Hymnal (http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/l/m/lmhigher.htm)
