Something Greater Lyrics | Austin Stone Worship

[Verse 1]
Beneath the broken shadow
Where sin and death did reign
The King of glory left his throne aside
The clouds of heaven opened and mercy fell like rain
To bring the darkened past a future bright

[Pre-Chorus]
Something greater, something greater has come

[Verse 2]
Upon the cross of sorrow
The cup of wrath ran dry
The dying Savior drinking every drop
The sting of death accepted, the final breath of love
Our greatest gain was heaven’s greatest loss

[Pre-Chorus]
Something greater, something greater has come
Yeah, something greater, something greater has come

[Chorus]
You are greater, greater
Than anything I’ve known or seen
You’re stronger, stronger than the grave that once held me
Your love is deeper and wider
In the highest place be lifted higher still
Oh You have and always will
Be something greater, whoa oh oh
Something greater, whoa oh oh
[Verse 3]
The silence there was broken
On the third day in the tomb
As the Savior’s heart began to pulse again
Then the Lamb arose in glory with fire in His eyes
And the keys of death and Hades in His hand
Now the kingdom of darkness will not stand
​For the King of kings has died and rose again

[Chorus]
You are greater, greater
Than anything I’ve known or seen
You’re stronger, stronger
Than the grave that once held me
Your love is deeper and wider
In the highest place be lifted higher still
Oh You have and always will
Be something greater

[Bridge]
The mourner’s gonna dance, the blind are gonna see
The lame is gonna run, the sinner’s gonna sing
The mourner’s gonna dance, the blind are gonna see
The lame is gonna run, the sinner’s gonna sing
Because Jesus is alive, He’s won the victory
So let the prodigal come home, let the captive be set free
The kingdom’s gonna come and the church is gonna sing
Because Jesus is alive and He’s won the victory
[Refrain]
You are greater, greater than anything I’ve known or seen
You’re stronger, stronger than the grave that once held me

[Chorus]
Yes, You are greater, greater
Than anything I’ve known or seen
You’re stronger, stronger than the grave that once held me
Your love is deeper and wider
In the highest place be lifted higher still
Oh You have and always will
Be something greater, whoa oh oh
Something greater, whoa oh oh

[Outro]
You're something greater, whoa oh oh
Yes, You are, You are, whoa oh oh
You're something greater
