about

I will Tell The Greatest Story.

I have always loved the old hymns and wanted at least one song to be in that tradition. It’s just the old story that is ever new, but helped me remember that the one who healed the blind man can give me vision. He who healed the lame can guide my path. The one who healed the deaf man can help me hear. Look at the story see what he did for other and find what he will do for you also.
I asked the young Australian duo, Mayfair Lane,( Rhys and Esther Duursma) to perform it for us. I loved the idea of two young people singing an old story.

lyrics

I will tell the Greatest story
of the one who knows my name
of the one healed the blind man
of the one who healed the lame

surely he can give me vision
surely he can help me speak
joy and blessing to the lonely
strength and comfort to the weak

Surely he has know our sorrows
he's acquainted with our grief
for he knows life and it's trials
and he helps our unbelief

surely he can free the prisoner
breaking fetters breaking bonds
giving pardons, showing mercy
and the love it's built upon

I will sing of our redeemer
of our saviour and our king
of our lover and our champion
while I've breath, I'll surely sing

for in him there is no darkness
and him there is no shame
ever with us, ever for us
always he shall be the same
