Behind The Song
‘Enthroned On High’ is based upon the Bible Verse Psalm 113, a bible verse that is drenched in his praise and exultation, from the setting of the sun to the place it sets. This song is a song that magnifies Him and reminds us of His position, His might, His glory and his power.
Bible Verse: Psalm 113
1 Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord, you his servants; praise the name of the Lord. 2 Let the name of the Lord be praised, both now and forevermore. 3 From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised. 4 The Lord is exalted over all the nations, his glory above the heavens. 5 Who is like the Lord our God, the One who sits enthroned on high, 6 who stoops down to look on the heavens and the earth? 7 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap; 8 he seats them with princes, with the princes of his people. 9 He settles the childless woman in her home as a happy mother of children.
Here’s a final prayer from Nath Hornsby
I pray that this song reminds us of His magnitude and reminds us of the power that He holds, over the earth, over kingdoms, over idols and over all other earthly and spiritual darkness. I pray a confidence and a faith will rise within His children to believe it and to proclaim it.
