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 manCHORUS

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 toldFor thousands of years

This pearl of great wisdom

Has weathered through changes

And lasted through wars

Many a doubter

Has risen and fallen

Built 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 loveREPEAT CHORUSThis 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
