Above All
by Paul Baloche
Theology & Meaning
A majestic declaration of Christ's supremacy over all creation and history. The bridge anchors the grandeur in the scandal of the cross — the most powerful act in history accomplished through apparent weakness.
Worship Leadership Tips
A powerful worship declaration suitable for Communion, Good Friday, or major celebration services. Best placed mid-set after the congregation is engaged. The bridge often moves worshippers deeply.
Arrangement Tips
Piano-led ballad. Strings or pads underneath add gravitas. The final chorus benefits from full congregation singing at forte. Allow space at the bridge for the cross imagery to land emotionally.
