How Great It Is
Mike Payne


I listened as a man cried out to his god of wood and stone
And it broke my heart to see all the tears he shed alone
For I knew that it was hopeless that he would not receive
An answer from the god he served that could not hear nor see

Chorus
How great it is to serve a living God
Who knows each step I take and every path I trod
How great it is to serve a God that’s real
Who sees my every tear and knows just how I feel

So I fell down on my knees to pray like so many times before
And I boldly asked my God to hear my prayer once more
It seemed that the heavens just opened up and I could hear Him say
He said “Yes my child I can hear you what do you need today”
