The Greatest Show On Earth

(and in the entire universe)

The greatest show in the universe
Takes place right here on earth
It’s happening exclusively
With those of the new birth
The angels are intrigued
And watch with awe from heav’n above
When one frail human rises up with faith
Which works through love

The Creator, Main Character,
The Source of Love directs, enjoys this show of courage and compassion pure;
The greatest Scene, you know, is when His Son
preformed that Act His Father’s so proud of -
And now the spotlight shifts to us:
Our faith which works through love.

You are a star, designed to shine this glory
And as you do
He’s writing His love story
through you

He’s not impressed with fancy speech,
(the Maker of the tongue)
The things man holds in high esteem
He counts them all but dung
There’s really only one great feat
The Father takes note of:
It’s when His son or daughter moves in faith
Which works through love.

The greatest show in the universe
Takes place right here on earth…
