Above All … He Carried My Burden

Above All, by Michael W. Smith

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

Truly one of my favorite songs as I reflect upon what Jesus did at the cross for me!
