(Your Love Has Lifted Me) Higher And Higher Lyrics

[Intro]
Your love is liftin' me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before

[Chorus]
Your love is liftin' me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
So keep it up, quench my desire
And I'll be at your side forevermore

[Verse 1]
Now once, I was downhearted
Disappointment was my closest friend
But you came, he soon departed
And he never showed his face again

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Oh, I'm so glad I finally found you
You're that one in a million man
When you wrap your lovin' arms around me
I can stand up and face the world again

[Chorus]
Your love is liftin' me higher
(Your love keeps liftin' me, liftin' me, liftin' me)
Than I've ever been lifted before
(Liftin' me, your love lifts me, higher, higher)
So keep it up, quench my desire
(Your love keeps liftin' me, liftin' me, liftin' me)
And I'll be at your side forevermore
(Liftin' me, your love lifts me higher, higher)
Your love is liftin' me higher
(Your love keeps liftin' me, liftin' me, liftin' me)
Than I've ever been lifted before
(Liftin' me, your love lifts me, higher, higher)
So keep it up, quench my desire
(Your love keeps liftin' me, liftin' me, liftin' me)
And I'll be at your side forevermore
(Liftin' me, your love lifts me higher, higher)
Your love is liftin' me higher
(Your love keeps liftin' me, liftin' me, liftin' me)
Than I've ever been lifted before
(Liftin' me, your love lifts me, higher, higher)
So keep it up, quench my desire
(Your love keeps liftin' me, liftin' me, liftin' me)
And I'll be at your side forevermore
(Liftin' me, your love lifts me higher, higher)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
