Translation of Higher Ground by Stevie Wonder

From:

People, keep on learnin'
Soldiers, keep on warrin'
World, keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long

Powers, keep on lyin'
While your people keep on dyin'
World, keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long

I'm so darn glad He let me try it again
Cause my last time on Earth I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin' until I reach the highest ground

* Teachers, keep on teachin'
* Preachers, keep on preachin'
* World, keep on turnin
* 'Cause it wont be too long
* Oh no

Lovers, keep on lovin'
Believers, keep on believin'
Sleepers, just stop sleepin'
'Cause it won't be too long
Oh no

I'm so glad that He let me try it again
'Cause my last time on Earth I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin' 'til I reach my highest ground
'Til I reach my highest ground
No one's gonna bring me down
Oh no
'Til I reach my highest ground
Don't you let nobody bring you down

* God is gonna show you higher ground
* He's the only friend you have around
