I'm pressing on the upward way,
New heights I'm gaining every day;
 |
| Pathway at Glendolough, Wicklow Mountains, Ireland |
Still praying as I onward bound,
"Lord, plant my feet on higher ground."
 |
| Church at the top of Croagh Patrick, County Mayo, Ireland |
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven's tableland,
 |
| Approaching Achill Island, County Mayo, Ireland |
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
 |
| Long view of Croagh Patrick. |
I want to live above the world,
Tho' Satan's darts at me are hurled;
 |
| View of Keem Bay, Achill Island. |
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.
 |
| Wicklow Mountains. |
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven's tableland,
 |
| Rosturk Castle, County Mayo, between Newport and Achill Island. |
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
 |
| Croagh Patrick in the snow. |
May your heart always lead you to the high places!

Lovely images and post. I would love to visit Ireland someday! Happy Sunday!
As is usual with your Sunday posts, I was "singing along" (in my mind anyway) as I read the words to this beautiful old hymn.
Your photos are gorgeous!
I'm wishing you a Happy Mother's Day!
Amazing images Linda, Ireland has some seriously beautiful scenery! Hope that you're having a fab Mothers Day and the boys are cooking something delicious for you and the other Mums. Aimee made me a scrumptious breakfast in bed,wonderful way to start Mothers Day.
fantastic views - perfectly higher ground. :)
Perfect text for the photos you showed today. Also very uplifting.
Humbling feeling when you consider WHO is responsible for these high places.
We just returned from a trip to Israel that was a blessing from above. God provided it free to us...funny thing is Ireland and Italy are the other places I dream of going...my three I's. I loved looking at your pics! Many blessings to you and thanks for stopping by.
That last shot is my favorite. Looks like a wonderful photography adventure.
Oh My Gosh! Gorgeous pictures Linda! I read in comments that you had a great Mom's Day :)
Another perfect pairing of lyrics and photography. Lots of familiar sights in Ireland too...!
