Above All Lyrics - Michael W. Smith
Review The Song (61)
Verse 1
Above all powers
Above all kings
Above all nature
And all created things
Above all wisdom
And all the ways of man
You were here
Before the world began
Verse 2
Above all kingdoms
Above all thrones
Above all wonders
The world has ever known
Above all wealth
And treasures of the earth
There's no way to measure
What You're worth
CHORUS
Crucified
Laid behind a stone
You lived to die
Rejected and alone
Like a rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all
Verse 1
Above all powers
Above all kings
Above all nature
And all created things
Above all wisdom
And all the ways of man
You were here
Before the world began
Verse 2
Above all kingdoms
Above all thrones
Above all wonders
The world has ever known
Above all wealth
And treasures of the earth
There's no way to measure
What You're worth
CHORUS
Crucified
Laid behind a stone
You lived to die
Rejected and alone
Like a rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all
CHORUS
Crucified
Laid behind a stone
You lived to die
Rejected and alone
Like a rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all
Like a rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all
Above all powers
Above all kings
Above all nature
And all created things
Above all wisdom
And all the ways of man
You were here
Before the world began
Verse 2
Above all kingdoms
Above all thrones
Above all wonders
The world has ever known
Above all wealth
And treasures of the earth
There's no way to measure
What You're worth
CHORUS
Crucified
Laid behind a stone
You lived to die
Rejected and alone
Like a rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all

the opposing evil can never change who JESUS is! | Reviewer: Boitumelo | 4/25/13
it is painful when people "create" their own "creators". JESUS can never be substituted, no matter their education, creativity and evil that works in them. may GOD help us never lower our standard,(we have been given power over all powers of the devil). lets continue exaulting the KING of kings, JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH. THANK U MWS keep on listening to the voice of he LORD and keep ministering the WORD. I love what GOD is doing through you.
above all powers and kingdoms | Reviewer: samuel praise | 1/28/13
the lord is above all powers and kingdom indeed, d very first time i heard dis song, i was moved and even my spirit too was moved, so i keep on hearing it often and often i never get tired of it. All glory power and adouration belongs to JESUS.
Above all powers | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/21/13
Jesus Christ is above everything on earth, what He says He will do it why then are u disturbing urself going where u can never be saved. Ogboni's power can never save, Aje's power can never save u nor mumy water power can save, rather they will add more to ur problem. JESUS is above all power. Jesus Christ I LOVE U. SAVE ME TODAY WITH UR INCAMPARABLE POWER.
What a prize he paid for us | Reviewer: Lil prizy | 1/2/13
Above all the treasure's in the world he worth more than those,he died for us to live,he became poor for us to be rich,he paid the prize for us,ooh what a huge sum of ramson,first time i heard this song on a friend phone it really touch my soul,startin from the rythm to the lyrics,God is awesome,Thank u Micheal W.smith
WE SHOULD CHANGE OUR LIFES | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/19/12
Yes. He really died for our sins. But what do we do for Him? Nothing but keep living through the sin.
That's why we have to change our lifes. It's not like He asked us to die for him too. He just want us to live away from the sin. That one thing is all he want us to do ! May God bless you!
Another perspective | Reviewer: Bevel | 11/16/12
Have you ever seen this song presented in sign language? It brings a whole new dimension and meaning to see it done in such a way, especially if the signer uses sympathetic facial expression. It makes the hairs go up on the back of the neck!
first from a lad | Reviewer: Amaldas | 11/15/12
I heard this song for the first time from young lad who had a thick voice and sang so beautifully. I was facinated by the way he sang and asked him to send me the copy of the song. I copied it and heard it several times i never got tired of it. The more I hear the more i want to hear it again. It awakes my spiritual self and and I am grateful to the writer and composer. May God bless all of us.
HE TOOK THE FALL | Reviewer: MRS. B.PINTO | 5/28/12
I LOVE THE LYRICS, SO TRUE. GOD DID TAKE THE FALL & HUMBLED HIMSELF FOR OUR SINS, TEACHING US HOW TO HUMBLE OURSELVES BEFORE GOD & OUR FELLOWBEINGS.WHAT AN AWESOME GOD. EVEN THOUGH HE WAS RICH ME MADE HIMSELF POOR FOR US SINNERS. I CAN NEVER THANK GOD ENOUGH ALL MY LIFE FOR THIS ACT. LOVE U JESUS. PRAISE THE NAME OF THE LORD OF LORDS & KING OF KINGS.

THE SONG IS REALLY A BLESSING AND A PICK UP WHEN ONE IS DOWN | Reviewer: OBITSENG | 5/8/12
THE FIRST TIME I LISTENED TO THE SONG IT WAS WHEN A FRIEND OF MINE BROUGHT ME HER PHONE, I LIKED IT, I WENT ON TRYING TO SING ALONG WITH BUT AT FIRST IT WAS DIFFICULT SINCE I COULDN'T CLEARLY HEAR THE WORDS, I SEARCHED FOR THE LYRICS AND IT WAS SO WONDERFUL TO REALLY GET THE MEANING OF THE SONG AND KNOW ITS WORDS AND SINGING ALONG IT WAS NOT A PROBLEM TO ME ANYMORE AND I CAN EVEN SING IT WITHOUT LISTENING TO IT. MSW, 'MAY THE LORD OUR GOD CONTINUE INCREASING YOU AND USE YOU ABUNDANTLY'.
It's a simple message that touches the heart | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/28/12
After reading some of the comments, I want to share my thoughts too. This song is not a theology thesis; rather the author was trying to paint a picture to illustrate something incredible.
This song paints a picture with a strong contrast between two sides: on one side is the glorious Son of God who is above all thins in this world, yet on the other side - He let Himself be treated like dirt, "trampled on the ground", and died on the cross thinking of (saving) the one thing that He treasures above all things - me (each of us).
To me "...thought of me above all" is entirely consistent with saying "Jesus is my personal savior" or "Jesus died for me". The "all" in "above all" can be understood simply as everything worthy and precious, including His own life, which he gave up for me.
Thank you MSW for painting such a vivid and "personal" picture of just how much Jesus loves me.

How every one see or think, it's doesn't matter. | Reviewer: Lilly | 2/22/12
Well I read most of the reviews, What about the message? try to look deeply into the song, the real meaning, don't let the arrogance of our hearts take place on this, just let it go seeking the spiritual, One important thing any thing that talk to us about Jesus, it's not to have contrversy around us, is to keep Jesus Love Alive in our hearts. 2 Timothy 3:14-17 Apply this verses to all the ways God inspire us to worship him. Take care or your Inner Spirit. Hope you understand what I meant to say, with my review, by the way I love the song, God Bless you. ; )
Something is unclear... ERRROR | Reviewer: kenneth | 12/29/11
"and thought of me" I think "me" is not an appropriate word to use. Why? the reason we are saved is because of the LOVE of God. God is above all thing even his creation...To God be the Glory... the proper word is "and thought of YOU"
He went through all of that to create His church | Reviewer: marie | 11/27/11
The Lord created His church. Mathew 16 V 18. He told his disciples to preach the gospel. And those who believe are saved. Marc 16 V 15 - 16. The gospel saves, and the gospel is: 1 st Corinthians 15 V 1-5.
Jesus started His church on the day of pentecost. With His own doctrine but nowadays we all deviate from what is the gospel. We all hold different names. Each one of us serve the Lord like we want to. Our lord did teach us how to praise, how to serve him.

Above All - Smith | Reviewer: Jonathan | 6/29/11
I haven't been able to see and listen again, the version of the song with the concluding part
"keep on blessing me
over and over and
over and over and
over and over again
over and over and over
and over and over and
over again above all
again
above all"
I heard it once on Radio and can't find it on the internet. Could anyone help me out.
