Greatest Story Ever Told - 4Him
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
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 men could never begin to explain
The measure of grace this wondrous book holds
It's more than a fable or and an 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 through wars
And many a doubter has risen and fallen
Story has never once abandoned its course
For the author still speaks to the listening one
Through the voices of men and through the pages
The pages of love
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 men could never begin to explain
The measure of grace this wondrous book holds
Down through the ages again and again
Down through the ages
The greatest story ever told
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
Greatest story ever told
Greatest story ever told
Greatest story ever told
Greatest greatest
Greatest greatest
