Lyrics

Ancient stories softly ring
Of kingdoms rise and fall
Through the ages voices sing
We hail the King of all
Through prophet Samuel's solemn eyes
A restless nation raised their cries
They sought a king of flesh and bone
Forsaking God upon His throne
Yet David in his pasture mild
Seemed just a lowly shepherd's child
But Heaven saw a warrior's heart
A chosen soul set far apart
You are greater You are stronger
Your kingdom reigns forevermore
When we humbly bow in wonder
Your power moves like ne'er before
Every kingdom rises falls
Yet Your throne outshines them all
When the mighty sink to dust
You lift the ones who in You trust
King Saul once stood in human pride
But arrogance soon turned the tide
While David fought by Heaven's grace
And found his strength in seeking Your face
The giant fell with just one stone
No earthly force can match Your own
In hearts surrendered to Your name
Your might ignites a holy flame
You are greater You are stronger
Your kingdom reigns forevermore
When we humbly bow in wonder
Your power moves like ne'er before
Every kingdom rises falls
Yet Your throne outshines them all
When the mighty sink to dust
You lift the ones who in You trust
Through wars hard fought and kingdoms tossed
Your purpose held when all seemed lost
Each triumph trial and costly fight
Revealed Your wisdom shining bright
Like Samuel's cry rings forth again
Obey the Lord not prideful men
For crowns on earth are soon undone
Yet at Your feet all victory's won
A greater King
In God's design
He builds a throne
That will not fade
Where mercy stands
And grace holds sway
You are greater You are stronger
Your kingdom reigns forevermore
When we humbly bow in wonder
Your power moves like ne'er before
Every kingdom rises falls
Yet Your throne outshines them all
When the mighty sink to dust
You lift the ones who in You trust
Your kingdom never ends
Your mercy never fails
In Jesus Christ our King
Your victory prevails
