The greatest book in history
Is written here for you and me
God give us eyes so we can see
The plans you've written beautifully
God used a boy like David
To conquer the great giant
And used a girl like Esther
Who risked it all to save his children
People in this book are just like you and me
And He wants to use us just like this you see
And He wants to use us just like this you see
