Above All
Myron Butler & Levi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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. Above all kingdoms, above all thrones. Above all wonders this world has ever known. Above all wealth and treasures of the earth. There's no way to measure what you're worth
Crucified, laid behind the 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
Crucified, laid behind the 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
Crucified, laid behind the 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
Crucified, laid behind the 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
Above all, above all, above all, above all, above all
The song "Above All" by Myron Butler & Levi portrays that God the Father gave the greatest gift to mankind by sending Jesus Christ. The lyrics emphasize that Jesus is above all powers, kings, nature, and created things. He is above all wisdom and ways of man and was present before the creation of the world. The chorus repeats the phrase "Above All" to signify the greatness of Jesus and his sacrifice for humanity.
The second verse describes Jesus' crucifixion and the pain he endured to save mankind. The lyrics compare him to a rose that was trampled on the ground, but he took the fall and thought of us above all. The chorus repeats itself again, focusing on the worth of Jesus and how it cannot be measured by wealth or treasures on earth.
