Verse 1
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
Verse 2
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
Chorus
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
(The greatest story ever told is of this Jesus)
Verse 3
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'er His love His grace
For He is risen
