"Lord I lift Your Name on High" is a Christian worship song. It was written by Rick Founds in 1989.
Founds wrote it during his morning devotion, while reading scripture on his computer monitor, and watching television, he plucked his guitar at the same time. He thought of the cycle of redemption, comparing it with the water cycle. Founds played the song as a worship leader in his church. It was picked up by Maranatha! Music and then Promise Keepers used the song in English and Spanish.
