A Greater Song

The story behind the song (by Matt Redman):

“One of my main passions in song writing is to somehow paint a bigger picture of God in worship. No symphoney could fully convey his glory, yet we must spur each other on to aim higher. The most amazing songs and sounds found on this earth should be in response to the glory of God in worship. That heart-cry is what this song is all about.
I wrote this song with Paul Baloche – the day after we’d both been to a songwriters’ gathering here in the UK. We’d both been stirred up during that time to write a song around this kind of theme, and were excited to see this song flowing out so soon after.”

WHO COULD IMAGINE A MELODY
True enough to tell of Your mercy
Who could imagine a harmony
Sweet enough to tell of Your love
I see the heavens proclaiming You day after day
And I know in my heart that there must be a way

To sing a greater song
A greater song to You on the earth
To sing a greater song
A greater song to You on the earth

Who could imagine a symphony
Grand enough to tell of Your glory
Our highest praise but a feeble breath
A whisper of Your thunderous worth
I see the heavens proclaiming You day after day
And I know in my heart that there must be a way

Hallelujah
We want to lift You higher
