Hive Open Mic #271 // I'm pressing the upward way cover by mamab

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


This is Hive Open Mic Week #271, my name remains @mamab on the platform. It's another exciting moment to share love and belongingness on hive through music. Beautiful salute to the admins, moderators and everyone who is contributing in one way or the other to the growth of the community.

This week we are looking at the theme "the mountain". I will be singing the cover of a hymn from the hymnal titled "I'm pressing on the upward way". I believe mountain is a relative term, it means different things to different people. In my interpretation for the week, mountain is seen as the top where good things abound. It is God's desire that we enjoy the goodness of life, but most times the enjoyment does not just come until you rise up to responsibilities and work. Our blessings easily flow through the work we do.

We are meant for the mountain not the valley. May God grant us the grace to keep climbing until we get to the top.

Lyrics
1 I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

2 My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

3 I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.

4 I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”

Esta es la Semana #271 de Hive Open Mic, mi nombre sigue siendo @mamab en la plataforma. Es otro momento emocionante para compartir amor y sentido de pertenencia en Hive a través de la música. Un hermoso saludo a los administradores, moderadores y a todos los que están contribuyendo de una forma u otra al crecimiento de la comunidad.

Esta semana estamos reflexionando sobre el tema "la montaña". Estaré cantando la versión de un himno del himnario titulado "Estoy subiendo a lo alto" (en inglés "I'm pressing on the upward way"). Creo que la montaña es un término relativo, significa cosas distintas para diferentes personas. En mi interpretación de esta semana, la montaña representa la cima donde abundan cosas buenas. Es el deseo de Dios que disfrutemos de lo bueno de la vida, pero la mayoría de las veces ese disfrute no llega hasta que asumimos responsabilidades y trabajamos. Nuestras bendiciones suelen fluir a través del trabajo que realizamos.

Estamos hechos para la montaña, no para el valle. Que Dios nos conceda la gracia de seguir escalando hasta llegar a la cima.

Letra

Estoy subiendo a lo alto,
Cada día más cerca estoy;
Sigo orando en mi caminar:
“Señor, pon mis pies en lo alto ya.”

Coro:
Señor, levántame y déjame estar
Por fe en Canaán, en su bello lugar;
Más alto que antes quiero estar,
Señor, pon mis pies en lo alto ya.

No quiero estar donde hay temor,
Donde la duda causa dolor;
Aunque otros allí quieran morar,
Mi anhelo es más alto llegar.

Quiero vivir por encima del mal,
Aunque me ataque el dardo infernal;
La fe me da canción celestial,
La voz de santos en lo eternal.

Quiero escalar la altura final
Y ver un rayo de gloria eternal;
Y mientras viva, mi oración será:
“Señor, llévame a la altura ya.”

Nothing about the world,can give man satisfaction,
The world is a market place.
We pray that our work on earth will speak for us, when we are done.
So we don't only catch a gleams of glory.
We will be in glory with Jesus.
