Here’s a
wonderful re-interpretation of Psalm 93 from James Taylor’s Everyday Psalms.
Psalm 93
The Lord
wears light like a royal robe;
it dazzles those who gaze upon the
Lord.
The whole
world is God’s royal throne;
like a sapphire, it shines in the darkness
of space.
The earth
has been God’s home from the beginning;
before time began, God was there.
A river in
flood laughs at dykes and sandbags.
Its banks cannot contain it;
it sweeps
trees and homes along like dust.
As thundering waters dominate a valley,
so God dominates this planet.
But God is
greater than any flood,
greater than the surf that pounds a
rocky shore into sand.
For acts of
God are not at random;
God rules with justice and fairness,
and makes the whole earth holy.
Hear, oh
earth!
The Lord,
the Lord alone, is God.
Now, and forever.
