The song, written by MercyMe, Brown Bannister, and Dan Muckala, lyrically revolves around the themes of love, life, and belief, as well as the foundation of Christian faith. The song was intended to refer to the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus in each verse and has been described as 'pop' and 'worship'. Released to radio on January 29, 2010 as the lead single from MercyMe's 2010 album The Generous Mr. Lovewell, "All of Creation" attained considerable success on Christian radio. The single spent ten weeks atop Billboard magazine's Hot Christian Songs chart and eleven weeks atop the Christian AC Monitored chart, and peaked at No. 1 on the Soft AC/Inspo chart. The song also peaked inside the top ten on the Christian CHR chart, No. 2 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, and at No. 14 on the Heatseekers Songs chart. The song was ranked at the top spot on Billboard magazine's 2010 year-end Hot Christian Songs and Hot Christian AC charts, as well as at No. 16 on the year-end Christian Digital Songs chart and No. 23 on the year-end Christian CHR chart. "All of Creation" was nominated for "Song of the Year" and "Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year" at the 42nd GMA Dove Awards, and was nominated for "Christian Song of the Year" at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards. BackgroundIn an interview with Kevin Davis of New Release Tuesday, lead singer Bart Millard said the idea behind the song was related to the theme of the album The Generous Mr. Lovewell.[3] Millard stated, "The entire album deals with three main aspects of love. The theme of the record is to 'love well' as Jesus commands us in the greatest commandment. There are songs about inward love such as in our song 'Beautiful.' There are songs based on 'we love because He first loved us,' which is the basis of this first single, 'All of Creation'."[3] Millard also said, "I set out to write a song that was confessional and refers to the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus in each verse. It was my intent to mention every stage of Christ’s condescension and atoning sacrifice throughout the song."[3] Composition{{listen|title=All of Creation|filename=MercyMe All of Creation.ogg|description=A sample of the "All of Creation", a Christian rock song.}}"All of Creation" is a Christian rock song[4] with a length of 3 minutes and 56 seconds.[5] It is set in common time and the key of B{{music|flat}} major with a steady rock tempo of 104 beats per minute.[4] The song has also been described as 'pop'[6] and 'worship'.[10] Lyrical themes in the song include love, life, and belief.[6] Lead singer Bart Millard intended the song to refer to the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus in each verse.[3] Guitarist Mike Scheuchzer said the song is "a picture of the change we want to see in our own lives. Without love like this, everything we do, everything we are, is in vain."[6] Millard also noted, "Not a lot of songs mention the foundation of what we believe in. The whole idea that Christ was born of a virgin, he died on the cross, he rose again. Just the basic principles of Christianity".[14] He also commented that "the song kind of takes us there, I say 'kind of' because the first line used to be talking about until a child was born, but it was instantly a Christmas song... but it does, the first verse goes through talking about how we were completely separated until the cross, basically."[7] Regarding the chorus of the song, Millard said "the whole idea of the chorus and the sense that it brings in, with the tons of voices singing, is the fact that there's a day thats going to come when we are going to worship and be as one."[7] Release and promotion"All of Creation" was officially released to radio on January 29, 2010 and as a digital single on March 2, 2010.[1] The song also had a limited CD single release at select Walmart locations.[8] ReceptionCritical responseCritical reception to "All of Creation" was mixed to positive.
