Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGH| I stand to day on higher ground | A |
| Than ever reached before | B |
| Yet from this summit I have found | A |
| Outlined full many more | B |
| Which seem to pierce the vaulted sky | C |
| And prove my effort vain | D |
| But God will set my feet on high | C |
| Thro' grace I shall attain | D |
| - | |
| Yet higher still my ideal stands | E |
| Its peak but dimly seen | F |
| But hope impels and love commands | E |
| And faith discerns its sheen | F |
| And when I reach its shining height | G |
| Heaven's gate will open wide | H |
| I'll see the beatific sight | G |
| And rest at Jesus' side | H |
