Lyrics
Heard It All
Verse 1
As Jesus slept there rose a storm
And His men feared they would drown
So they cried to Him; “Save us Lord!”
This ol’ bucket’s going down!
Then Jesus rose amidst the noise
Rebuking wind and wave
Amazed disciples heard His voice
And the crashing seas obeyed
Chorus
So you may think you’ve heard it all
But have you heard the Savior’s call?
The loving words of Jesus
The truth that comes to free us
You may have heard a million things
Until you hear the King of kings
My friend you ain’t heard anything
Oh, you ain’t heard it all
Verse 2
When the leaders wanted Jesus dead
They sent the Temple guards
They feared that Jesus’ name would spread
And His fame would go too far
But the guards returned their job undone
They failed to bring him in
In shame explaining what went wrong
They said, “No one spoke like Him.”
Chorus
So you may think you’ve heard it all
But have you heard the Savior’s call?
The loving words of Jesus
The truth that comes to free us
You may have heard a million things
But till you hear the King of kings
Friend you ain’t heard anything
Oh, you ain’t heard it all
Bridge
Well the words of the philosophers
They will rise and they will fall
But the words of heaven’s carpenter
Will reign above them all!
Chorus
So you may think you’ve heard it all
But have you heard the Savior’s call?
Those loving words of Jesus
The truth that comes to free us
You may have heard a million things
But till you hear the King of kings
Friend you ain’t heard anything
Oh, you ain’t heard it all
Oh my friend you ain’t heard anything
You ain’t heard it all
You ain’t heard it all
