1 The call “come up higher,” is ringing out still; Each stepping is planned by our Father’s good will; If only we follow the word of our King, To yonder bright Homeland, His children He’ll bring. Refrain: Upward, still upward, all of life’s way; Upward, still upward, day after day; Each trial surmounted shall help us to rise, To enter, rejoicing, our home in the skies. 2 The way may be toilsome, but safety is there; We’ve left the dark valley of sin and despair; Now, upward with Jesus, our course He will guide, And all that is needful, His grace will provide. [Refrain] 3 O, fear not the journey, ‘tis guided in love; Sometimes there are shadows, light dwelleth above; Our King has ascended to glory on high, And there, in His likeness, we’ll see, eye to eye. [Refrain] | The Excelsior Hymnal #58 (1919) |
