Lyrics

IT'S BIGGER THAN ANYTHING
written by Pat Duke
Natrylis ASCAP

When I was just a little boy we counted down the days
Lit a candle and said a Christmas prayer for that sweet Bethlehem babe
My Mother read the story of that most glorious night
And I drifted off to peaceful dreams while angels sang on high

Now I'm all grownup and that little world's so far away
And the reason for the season isn't mentioned much today
I'm tired of the loud spending crowds in their frenzied unconscious parade
The lines and the traffic so angry so tragic to feel this way

IT'S BIGGER THAN ANYTHING
IT'S SO OVERWHELMING
BEYOND UNDERSTANDING
THAT'S WHAT I BELIEVE
YES, IT'S BIGGER THAN ANYTHING
BEYOND ALL IMAGINING
WHEN I LOOK AROUND I SEE
IT'S BIGGER THAN ANYTHING

My daughter and her little son came to visit me
I draped garland with big red velvet bows and put up the Christmas tree
My grandson said, "Hey Papa, will you read to me tonight?"
I began 'Twas the night before Christmas' and he said, "No that's not right."

So, he opened up my Bible to Luke and he told me what to read
I read about Caesar, a Census and Joseph the Nazarene
And a stable where Mary gave birth to Christ Jesus, Our Saviour Our King
And for the first time in years that child opened my eyes and I heard the angels sing

IT'S BIGGER THAN ANYTHING
IT'S SO OVERWHELMING
BEYOND UNDERSTANDING
THAT'S WHAT I BELIEVE
YES, IT'S BIGGER THAN ANYTHING
BEYOND ALL IMAGINING
WHEN I LOOK AROUND I SEE
IT'S BIGGER THAN YOU IT'S BIGGER THAN ME
WHEN I LOOK AROUND I SEE
IT'S BIGGER THAN ANYTHING
