Above All Things Lyrics

Phil Keaggy Above All Things

I have taken you in my arms
I prefer you to my life itself
For I love you, I love you

And my most ardent dream
Is to spend my days in such a way
To be near you, to be near you

I have placed your love above all things
And nothing would be more bitter to me
Than to be of a different mind than you
Than to be of a different mind

I have placed your love above all things
And nothing would be more painful to me
Than to be of a different heart than you
Than to be of a different heart
I love you

I have taken you in my heart
I prefer you to all else
Because I love you

And together we in prayer
Beseech the blessing we will share
I love you, I love you

And this present life is nothing
Without knowing that we're loving
I am here to live for you, here to live with you
For I love you

I love you

I love you

I have placed your love above all things
And nothing would be more bitter to me
Than to be of a different mind than you
Than to be of a different mind

I have placed your love above all things
And nothing would be more painful to me
Than to be of a different heart than you
Than to be of a different heart
'Cause I love you
