Oh you've been my inspiration 
And I've loved you for so long 
And in my times of desperation 
I was weak and your love made me strong 

So in those times when you can't stop 
The rain from falling 
When you raise your voice 
And think, no one hears you calling 
When you need someone 
And you think you've looked everywhere 
You?d better think again 
'Cause baby, I'll be there 

I'll be standing on higher ground 
When the water's getting deep 
And there's no one else around 

I'll be standing on higher ground 
I'll be there for you, I will care for you 
I swear to you, I won't let you down
Oh these hands were made to help you 
Just to touch you and to give 
All the love that you've been giving me 
And in my heart is where you live
So in those times when you can't stop 
The rain from falling 
When you raise your voice 
And think, no one hears you calling 
When you need someone 
And you think you've looked everywhere 
You?d better think again 
'Cause baby, I'll be there
I'll be standing on higher ground 
When the water's getting deep 
And there's no one else around 

I'll be standing on higher ground 
I'll be there for you, I will care for you 
I swear to you, no I won't let you down
Higher ground is the place I found 
Through the love you gave to me 
When I was down
Hmmm, the highest part in every heart 
Is when you give to someone else 
Without thinking of yourself
I'll be standing on higher ground 
When the water's getting deep 
And there's no one else around 

I'll be standing on higher ground 
I'll be there for you, I will care for you 
I swear to you, I won't let you down
I'll be standing on higher ground 
When the water's getting deep 
And there's no one else around 

I'll be standing on higher ground 
I'll be there for you, I will care for you 
Oh I swear to you, I won't let you down.
