GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD
|
|
When I was a child
|
I heard a great story
|
Of kingdoms and empires
|
And prophets of old
|
Of heroes and martyrs
|
Who died for their cause
|
And through every chapter
|
The story was told
|
Of redemption and love
|
Sometimes written in red
|
Headed right to the heart
|
Of every woman and man
|
|
CHORUS
|
And down through the ages
|
Again and again
|
It's the greatest story ever told
|
Straight from the pages
|
From beginning to end
|
It's the greatest story ever told
|
Wise could never begin to explain
|
The measure of grace
|
This wonderous book holds
|
It's more than a fable
|
Or and old fairy tale
|
It's the greatest, greatest story ever told
|
|
For thousands of years
|
This pearl of great wisdom
|
Has weathered through changes
|
And lasted thorugh wars
|
Many a doubter
|
Has risen and fallen
|
Buit the story had never once
|
Abandoned it's course
|
For the author still speaks
|
To the listening one
|
Through the voices of men
|
And through the pages
|
The pages of love
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
|
This world that we live in could never contain
|
The wealth of compassion
|
This wondrous book holds
|
It's more than a fable or an old fairy tale
|
It's the greatest, greatest story ever told
|
