KeyWords: Freedom From Fear,
Verse One:
Alexander had a plan
To conquer all the world,
But he died a broken man
Who thought he'd reached his goal.
Chorus One:
He took all the glory for himself
And he didn't want to share
It with anyone else, not even God!
So he lost everything in the end!
Verse Two:
Napoleon Bonaparte's kingdom fell apart
When he thought he was so great!
Other men, too, met their Waterloo
When they thought they had it made!
Chorus Two:
They took all the glory for themselves,
And they didn't want to share
It with anyone else, not even God!
So they lost everything in the end!
Bridge:
So, don't worry if you're nothing!
When you're thinkin' you're something,
That's when you're not!
If you're thinkin' you're something,
You're gonna lose everything
That you think you've got!
Verse Three:
Toynbee told us and history shows us
From history they never learn
Of other great men who came to their end
Because to God they wouldn't turn!
[Repeat chorus Two]
[Repeat Bridge]
Do do do doo do do, give glory to God!
Do do do doo do do, give glory to God!
