Story behind the song
As we were beginning the second "Q" album (Into His Presence), we began talking about worship music and the importance of expressing praise to God through music. Our goal for the album was to lean more toward a worship feel, as opposed to the "performance" feel of our first album. So we began putting together songs with this in mind, and one of the first praise songs that I came up with was this one. With all the talk about worship, I began to look through the scriptures for ideas, especially in the book of Psalms. Chapter 93 really jumped out at me as an expression of God's awesome power. The song more or less wrote itself. 
Lyrics
Chorus: The Lord Reigns The Lord reigns, he is clothed with majesty The Lord has clothed himself with strength The Lord reigns, he is clothed with majesty He will not be moved. The floods have lifted up their voice The floods have lifted up, O Lord The floods have lifted up their waves The floods have lifted up, O Lord More than the sounds of many waters And the mighty breakers of the sea The Lord on high is mighty Chorus Repeat Verse Chorus 2x
