  1. Higher Than I

From the recording Caught Up

Jewish People appear to be scattered everywhere in the world — and it seems the Irish are too!
I sometimes call this song my Jewish Riverdance! …with apologies to Mr. Flatley & his troupe. This unique Jew-rish (Jewish/Irish) song is very lively and a wee bit special, as we learn to reach higher than ourselves. — Psalm 61:1-4; Isaiah 40:31

Lyrics

You have been a refuge for me. A strong tower safe from my enemy. • Forever I’ll rest in Your tent pure and free; And I will trust in the shadow of Your wings. • Hear my voice, attend to my prayer. From the depth of the earth I cry. • When my heart overwhelms me till I could just die, You lead me back to the Rock that is higher than I. • Those who wait upon the Lord, their strength is renewed as in days of old. • We’ll mount up with wings like eagles so high, and run, never wearied, we’ll walk —and we’ll fly. • Hear my voice, attend to my prayer; From the ends of the earth I cry. • When my heart overwhelms me You teach me to fly, Lifting me up to the Rock that is higher than I.
You have been a refuge for me. A strong tower safe from my Adversary. • Forever I’ll rest in Your tent worry free, And I will trust in the shelter of Your wings. • Hear my voice, attend to my prayer, From the depth of the earth I cry. • When my heart overwhelms me till I could just die, You lead me back to the Rock that is higher than I. • When we wait upon HaShem, our strength is renewed as in way back when. • We’ll mount up with wings like eagles so high, And run, never wearied, we’ll walk —and we’ll fly. • Hear my voice, attend to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I cry. • When my heart overwhelms me You teach me to fly, lifting me up to the Rock that is higher than, Hear my voice, attend to my prayer, From the ends of the earth I cry. • When my heart overwhelms me till I could just die, You lift me up to the Rock that is higher than, Hear my voice, attend to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I cry. • When my heart overwhelms me You teach me to fly, lifting me up to the Rock that is higher than I, that is higher than I, that is higher than I.
