4Him 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

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
