4 Him Greatest Story Ever Told Lyrics

Greatest Story Ever Told Lyrics

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 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
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
