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 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 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 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 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 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

    General Comment:This song makes me cry every time.

    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

    Really breathtaking.

    General Comment:This is a great song. I love Michael W. Smith. This song is so true because Jesus really lowered himself and he went through a horrible death just to save us.

    General Comment:I absolutely love this song. I think it's beautiful...we sing it fairly often in church, and like lrc said - it really makes you think. It just shows how awesome God is and how much above this earth He is, yet He still came to save me, little, greedy me...and of course all of you. And it was added on my birthday too! :)
