Marvin Sapp's 'Above All' is a worship song that exalts the supremacy of Jesus Christ over all creation, powers, and earthly treasures. The lyrics declare that Christ existed before the world began and that His worth is immeasurable. The bridge reflects on the crucifixion, describing Jesus as rejected, alone, and trampled like a rose, yet He took the fall out of love for humanity. The song emphasizes Christ's sacrificial death and His preeminence, drawing from themes of the cross and God's love.

[Verse 1:]
Above all powers,
above all kings,
above all nature and all created things.
Above all wisdom and all the ways of men,
You were here before the world began.
[Verse 2:]
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.
[Bridge:]
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.
