Notes About The Poem

If I look up,  if I continue in the worship,  if I stop and pray and acknowledge that in your love and in my life I'm going.....

Higher & Higher

---JELSR 

Higher and Higher

In the natural when, when I walk them stairs
I am going
higher & higher

when I pray alone or in a crowd
my spirit man goes ever...
higher & higher

atmosphere
above the trees, beyond the stars
above moon
beyond Jupiter
My life in God is on
for ever going on ...
Higher & Higher 

so when I'm on my knees higher
when I'm lying down higher
awake or asleep ever higher and higher
I stand
I knee
I walk
I talk ( I mean pray
to God I say
when I pray alone or in a crowd
my spirit man goes ever...
higher & higher
In the natural when, when I walk them stairs
I am going
higher & higher
In the natural when, when I walk them stairs
I am going
higher & higher
In the natural when, when I walk them stairs
I am going
higher & higher

I am extremely honored! Another poem that is "singable" by a gospel choir.
