[1] I've been on a mountain high
gazing to and fro
.
I've been on a building tall
.looking down below
But the highest I will be
.is when my Savior comes for me
Sailing up into the clouds
.to our brand new home
.
[CHO:] I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.THAN I'VE EVER GONE BEFORE
.
I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.WHEN I HEAR THE TRUMPETS BLOW
THAT'S THE SOUND I LONG TO HEAR
.
WHEN OUR SAVIOR SHALL APPEAR
.
I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.THAN I'VE EVER GONE BEFORE
.
[2] There's planes that fly so very high
.up above the clouds
Swiftly out across the sky
past the speed of sound
But if your heart has been made right
you will soar up to new heights
Sailing up into the clouds
.to our brand new home
[CHO:] I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.THAN I'VE EVER GONE BEFORE
.
I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.WHEN I HEAR THE TRUMPETS BLOW
THAT'S THE SOUND I LONG TO HEAR
.
WHEN OUR SAVIOR SHALL APPEAR
.
I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.THAN I'VE EVER GONE BEFORE
.
Modulation: Tenor takes lead out
[CHO:] I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.THAN I'VE EVER GONE BEFORE
.
I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.WHEN I HEAR THE TRUMPETS BLOW
THAT'S THE SOUND I LONG TO HEAR
.
WHEN OUR SAVIOR SHALL APPEAR
.
I'M GONNA GO HIGHER
.THAN I'VE EVER GONE BEFORE
.
[TAG:] I'm gonna go higher
