Highest Ground

Lyrics

Woo – woo – woo – woo – woo
Woo – woo – woo – woo – woo

Did you see him slip a quarter into the meter next to his?
Or the people giving up their seats to the mom with all her kids?
The volunteers who run in to save us from a fire.
Threads of our tapestry, they pull a little tighter.

You and me – he and she
Next door neighbor
Stranger down the street
Form a chain – grab the clouds (because)
We haven’t even touched our highest ground

Well, I will buy a coffee for the person behind me.
The missions see the hungry and give them something to eat.
All these acts of kindness ringing out just like a choir.
Threads of our tapestry, they pull a little tighter.

You and me – he and she
Next door neighbor
Stranger down the street
Form a chain – grab the clouds (because)
We haven’t even touched our highest ground
No, we haven’t even touched our highest ground

Woo’s

Don’t lose sight
So much is right
Look at what is found when we’re
Reaching out for our highest ground

From way up here on this path there is so much to see.
We give our love away though there is no guarantee.
Amazing how sometimes the darkness makes the light seem brighter.
Threads of our tapestry let’s pull them even tighter.

You and me – he and she
Next door neighbor
Stranger down the street
Form a chain – grab the clouds (because)
We haven’t even touched our highest ground
No, we haven’t even touched our highest ground
No, we haven’t even touched our highest ground
