"Above all powers
Above all kings
Above all nature
And all created things

Above all wisdom
And all the ways of man
You were there
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 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 "

 

'When I say..."I am a Christian" 
I'm not shouting "I am saved" 
I'm whispering "I was lost" 
That is why I chose this way.
 
When I say..."I am a Christian" 
I don't speak of this with pride. 
I'm confessing that I stumble 
And need someone to be my guide.
 
When I say..."I am a Christian" 
I'm not trying to be strong. 
I'm professing that I'm weak 
And pray for strength to carry on.
 
When I say..."I am a Christian" 
I'm not bragging of success. 
I'm admitting I have failed 
And cannot ever pay the debt.
 
When I say..."I am a Christian" 
I'm not claiming to be perfect, 
My flaws are all too visible, 
But God believes I'm worth it.
 
When I say..."I am a Christian" 
I still feel the sting of pain 
I have my share of heartaches 
Which is why I speak His name.
 
When I say..."I am a Christian" 
I do not wish to judge. 
I have no authority. 
I only know I'm loved.'
