He was mocked, He was spit upon  Scourged for every single thing He never did wrong  He was bound, He was bruised  Tempted more than anyone and He refused  With a crown of thorns placed on His head  The Master showed no malice, but instead... He rose above  He showed His perfect love To every man who scoffed at who he said he was, He rose above He was betrayed, and He was sold 30 bits would sell the Shephard from His fold He felt our pain, He bore our grief  Until the work was through the Savior would not sleep  In the sacred Garden of Gethsemane  The Son of Man descended below all things.. When He Rose Above He showed His perfect love Alone He trod the wine press and with every drop of blood, He rose above He showed us what to do  Full of light and truth  But he was accused, and He was crucified  Piercing wounds marked His hands, feet and side Laid to rest, His life was through But victory over death was found in an empty tomb.. He rose above, He showed His perfect love The Father sent His willing Son to die for each of us, And He rose above Now He lives for us, Cuz He rose above

Just before the dawn can break, You're broken down Taken bound by shadows circling all around you Late at night you lie awake, without a friend Forsaken when the night is endlessly haunting you Wait for the morning light The sun will rise The sun will rise again Voices shouting from below They curse your name Like an open vein That drains your piece of mind If you wait for the morning light The sun will rise The sun will rise again Oh, wait for the morning light The sun will rise The sun will rise again Mother they took Him from your arms They took Him from your arms With hateful eyes and a crown of thorns Through your own soul you felt that sword Wait for the morning light The Son will rise The Son will rise again Wait for the morning light The Son will rise The Son will rise again If you wait for the morning light The Son will rise The Son will rise again

Wonderful, merciful Savior Precious Redeemer and Friend Who would have thought that a Lamb Could rescue the souls of men? Oh, He rescues the souls of men Counselor, Comforter, Keeper Spirit we long to embrace He offers hope when our hearts have Hopelessly lost our way Oh, we've hopelessly lost the way He is the One that we praise He is the One we adore He gives the healing and grace Our hearts always hunger for Oh, our hearts always hunger for Almighty, infinite Father Faithfully loving Your own Here in our weakness You find us Falling before Your throne Oh, we're falling before Your throne He is the One that we praise He is the One we adore He gives the healing and grace Our hearts always hunger for Oh, our hearts always hunger for

Here I am again, down on my knees And with every pleading word, Thy comfort I seek Though the words are slow to come, My thoughts are racing by Peace fills the room, Thy spirit is nigh He hears me When I'm crying in the night He hears me When my soul longs to fight Till the morning will come And the light of the dawn reassures... He hears me Any hour, wherever I may be In the silence of an empty room, or on a crowded street Whether offering thanks, or in urgency I pray I never go unnoticed, I'm never lead astray Any whisper of the soul No matter how old Father hears the call

I know that my Redeemer lives. What comfort this sweet sentence gives! He lives, he lives, who once was dead. He lives, my ever-living Head. He lives to bless me with his love. He lives to plead for me above. He lives my hungry soul to feed. He lives to bless in time of need. He lives to grant me rich supply. He lives to guide me with his eye. He lives to comfort me when faint. He lives to hear my soul's complaint. He lives to silence all my fears. He lives to wipe away my tears. He lives to calm my troubled heart. He lives all blessings to impart. He lives! All glory to his name! He lives, my Savior, still the same. Oh, sweet the joy this sentence gives: "I know that my Redeemer lives!" He lives! All glory to his name! He lives, my Savior, still the same. Oh, sweet the joy this sentence gives: "I know that my Redeemer lives!"

I come to the garden alone, While the dew is still on the roses, And the voice I hear falling on my ear The Son of God discloses. And He walks with me, and He talks with me, And He tells me I am His own; And the joy we share as we tarry there, None other has ever known. He speaks, and the sound of His voice Is so sweet the birds hush their singing, And the melody that He gave to me Within my heart is ringing. I’d stay in the garden with Him, Though the night around me be falling, But He bids me go; through the voice of woe His voice to me is calling.

I’ve been walking alone in the wilderness Trying to find my way without a compass It’s so dark that I can’t see, and I’m longing to be set free Sick of walking alone in the wilderness, the wilderness I just want to go home But I don’t know which way to go And in the silence I hear a voice calling my name Saying darlin I’m here, so don’t be afraid You’ve been searching in all the wrong places Looking for something you can’t see on a map Find love, and you’ll find your way back I’ve been crying alone in the wilderness Scared to show my face to the world like this I am broken, but I know that I won’t make it on my own No more crying alone in the wilderness, the wilderness Open my eyes and I see Sunlight breaking through the trees The choice is yours, it’s a new day, you’ve got two feet, be on your way The journey starts with just a step, and a little faith

Should nothing of our efforts stand No legacy survive Unless the Lord does raise the house In vain its builders strive To you who boast tomorrow’s gain Tell me what is your life A mist that vanishes at dawn All glory be to Christ! All glory be to Christ our king! All glory be to Christ! His rule and reign will ever sing, All glory be to Christ! His will be done His kingdom come On earth as is above Who is Himself our daily bread Praise Him the Lord of love Let living water satisfy The thirsty without price We’ll take a cup of kindness yet All glory be to Christ! All glory be to Christ our king! All glory be to Christ! His rule and reign will ever sing, All glory be to Christ! When on the day the great I Am The faithful and the true The Lamb who was for sinners slain Is making all things new. Behold our God shall live with us And be our steadfast light And we shall ere his people be All glory be to Christ! All glory be to Christ our king! All glory be to Christ! His rule and reign will ever sing, All glory be to Christ!

I feel my Savior's love In all the world around me. His Spirit warms my soul Through everything I see. I feel my Savior's love; Its gentleness enfolds me, And when I kneel to pray, My heart is filled with peace. I feel my Savior's love And know that he will bless me. I offer him my heart; My shepherd he will be. I'll share my Savior's love By serving others freely. In serving I am blessed. In giving I receive.

Hear a voice In the crowd Feel a gentle whisper Shake the ground Hear it once Listen twice Look to heaven Opened ears and eyes To understand the Son of Man, He lives again Not a word Dare not speak Feel the nail prints In His hands and feet A city changed Healed by faith Heaven sent the Savior To that place To kneel and pray, to heal and save the souls In Bountiful Children blessed One by one Welcoming the angels As they come Jesus weeps Joy is full With the righteous souls In Bountiful

HE ROSE ABOVE is a collection of music centered around the Savior. Several artists, songwriters and musicians donated their time and talents to contribute to the 10 song compilation album, which features both new original songs as well as new versions of classic hymns.

"I felt very inspired on the anniversary of my little sister's passing, and felt very strongly that I needed to put this album together. A lot of really great people pitched in to help make it all possible" says eleven17 founder Brandon Metcalf. "She continues to influence and inspire from the other side of the veil. Working on sacred and uplifting music is when I feel closest to her."
