Well they say that there's a ladder,
reaching between earth and heaven.
And if you climb up on this ladder,
each day you'll reach a little higher,
but I don't know. I don't think so.
'Cause it seems to me there's no in between.
Well, for me there is no middle.
I'm either walking in the Spirit,
or I'm back down at ground zero.
Oh I know, it is so.

But one thing I've desired of the Lord,
that I may abide in His house.
That I may walk all the days of my life
in the presence of the Lord.

Well we know that there's a ladder
reaching between earth and heaven.
And that the ladder's name is Jesus,
and that He wants to bring us to Him.
Oh I know, it is so.
But it seems more like a flight of faith,
strait into the realms of heaven,
and if I give my whole self to Him,
I can always walk there with Him.
Oh I know, it is so.

But one thing I've desired of the Lord,
that I may abide in His house.
That I may walk all the days of my life
in the presence of the Lord.

But one thing I've desired of the Lord,
that I may abide in His house.
That I may walk all the days of my life
in the presence of the Lord.

That I may walk every step of my life
in the presence of the Lord.
