	  Above All Things Lyrics 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.
  And this present life is nothing, Without knowing that we're loving, I am here to live for you,  Yes here to live with you. For 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 place your love above all things, Nothing would be more bitter to me Than to be of a different mind than you, Than to be of a different mind.
  I place your love above all things, 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.
  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 place your love above all things, Nothing would be more bitter to me Than to be of a different mind than you, Than to be of a different mind.
  I place your love above all things, Nothing would be more painful to me Than to be of a different heart than you, Than to be of a different heart.
  Adapted from the writings of St John Chrystostom
