Cartwright Lionel - The Measure Of Greatness - Sözleri

Well I heard an old story about a soldier at war


Who believed that his brothers were worth fighting for


And knowing the cost, well aware of the price


For the freedom of others he laid down his life





CHORUS:


Oh Lord let my life seek higher an aim


Than worldly ambition, fortune and fame


For greatness is measured by not what we take


But only by that which we've given away





Well this selfless young soldier made me just stop and think


I began to consider what makes a man great


And I thought of my life in the light of this man


And it made me ashamed of the man that I am





Oh Lord let my life seek higher an aim


Than worldly ambition, fortune and fame


For greatness is measured by not what we take


But only by that which we've given away





There are men of great power and great billionaires


And superstars lifted up high in the air


But for me the young soldier put it all into view


Those truly great ones are precious and few





Oh Lord let my life seek higher an aim


Than worldly ambition, fortune and fame


For greatness is measured by not what we take


But only by that which we've given away
