Higher Than the Flood — Psalm 93

[Organ introduction: slow and majestic] [Verse 1: Bubba] Before the mountains wore their green, Before the first blue morning gleamed, Your throne was standing, strong and sure; Your kingdom stands forevermore. In strength and majesty You reign; The world You hold is not in vain. [Refrain: Darlene leads, Bubba answers] Higher than the flood, [Bubba] Higher than its cry. [Darlene] Stronger than the waters, [Bubba] Lord enthroned on high. [Duet] Waves can lift their voices; They cannot lift Your throne. Higher than the flood, You reign, and You alone. [Verse 2: Bubba] The rivers rise, the rivers roar, Their thunder shakes the rocky shore. The sea may throw its weight around; Your greater might will not bow down. Your words stand faithful, tested, true; No wave can shake what comes from You. [Slide guitar solo: eight bars] [Final refrain: duet with choir] Higher than the flood, Higher than its cry. Stronger than the waters, Lord enthroned on high. Waves can lift their voices; They cannot lift Your throne. Higher than the flood, You reign, and You alone. [Coda: choir softly] Holy is Your house forever; Faithful is the word You’ve shown.
