The Greatest Story Ever Told

Sin grips the heart within
 A curse on fallen men
 This pride and selfishness we hold inside
 Though we were all condemned
 We had a loving friend who came to save us
 He lived a perfect life
 And gave the blind their sight
 Fulfilled the things foretold by prophecy
 He humbly took His cross
 And died to save the lost, their sins forgiven (their sins forgiven)
 The greatest story ever told is of this Jesus
 How He came to earth to rescue sinful men
 Sent from the Father up above
 To sacrifice in love and take our place
 And give unending grace
 This Son of God who gave His life and took the grave
 Obeyed His Father's will despite the cost
 But death could not contain
 His pow'r, His love, His grace
 For He is risen!
 The greatest story ever told is of this Jesus
 How He came to earth to rescue sinful men
 Sent from the Father up above
 To sacrifice in love and take our place
 And give unending grace
