The Most High Rules was originally written for the Daniel cantata at Manitoulin Youth Conference 2005, and recorded again for the Even So, Come album. Based on Daniel 4, 5, & 7, Hebrews 12, and Acts 15, this song expresses our confidence in how God works in the world,  unapologetically affirms God's purpose with the earth, and rejoices in the part we can play within that plan.

Lyrics:

Though man's kingdom may exist for a time,

His fleshly ways and Godless days are numbered and will end

The God of heaven plans a kingdom and an age

When right will rule and we his tools will claim the earth for him!

 

The Most High rules in the kingdom of men

His son will soon arise to conquer all the earth,

His kingdom shall never be destroyed but it shall stand forever!

And in these days of the kingdom of men, the son will soon arise to conquer all the earth.

His kingdom shall never be destroyed but it shall stand forever!

 

Therefore since we see a kingdom we'll receive,

We serve our God, the path we trod with reverence and with fear.

His kingdom and domain He'll give unto the saints; 

His chosen ones the race have run as people for his name!
