All The Above
Various Artists - Mixed by DJ Skribble Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Above all powers above all kings
above all nature
and all creted 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 the 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 loved to die
rejected and alone
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 creted 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 the 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 loved 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

Overall Meaning

The song "Above All Else" by Various Artists is a powerful Christian hymn that praises the supremacy of God. The lyrics depict the glory and majesty of God, who is above all powers, kings, nature, and wisdom. The song emphasizes that God is the creator of all things and existed before the beginning of time. It also acknowledges God's love and sacrifice for humanity, as Jesus was crucified, laid behind the stone, rejected and alone, yet He still thought of us above all. The song draws its inspiration from the biblical text in Philippians 2:9-11, which says, "Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."


The song "Above All Else" was first released in 1999 as a single from Paul Baloche's album "Open the Eyes of My Heart." However, it was later covered by other popular artists such as Michael W. Smith, Rebecca St. James, and Randy Travis. The song has become a popular hymn in modern Christian worship, and it is often sung as an expression of gratitude and reverence to God's supremacy. The lyrics of the song remind us that despite the challenges we face in life, God is in control and is worthy of our trust and worship.

@@ci6516 yes😁 im currently working out with it at the moment! What a great workout session im having

@Cookieboy70

@@ci6516 I actually don't agree with this, lol, for workouts I need intense, chest thumping, fight music, which is opposite of what A&B is for me, soulful, relaxing, and happy.

@angelocutolo

@@Cookieboy70 Well, i think it' s a good soundtrack in the beginning of the workout. But when i start to lift serious weight and i'm already warm, I switch to AC/DC, Pantera, etc. So I'm able to squeeze the last drops of energy....
