Higher Up and Further In

Higher up and further in,
Oh, how I long to enter in,
To all the fullness of Your perfect love!
Earthly burdens all forsaken,
Help my spirit to awaken,
To Your invitation to arise!

In Your perfect love no fear can stay.
In the brightness of Your perfect heart
You melt my stubborn pride away...

And then we mount up with wings as eagles,
Higher up and further in!
Soaring higher in Your presence, Lord
Oh God, we want to go with You,
Higher up and further in!
