Telling The Story (Humanist Hymn)

Chorus:
They’re telling the story again,
the story of hope for all humankind;
praising human glory again,
to lift the heart higher and light up the mind.

They’re telling the story again,
of wisdom and courage overcoming all;
those tales of victory again,
love rising triumphantly while evil falls.

1st Verse:

It’s the story of a hero that can guide us
to the hero that is hiding deep inside us;
it’s the story of a small man fighting giants
that can teach us the true power of defiance.

Heroes facing tribulations, trials and tests,
representing ones we meet along life’s quest;
they keep going ‘cause they’re showing us, my friend,
that you’ve got to keep on fighting till the end.

Chorus:
They’re telling the story again,
the story of hope for all humankind;
praising human glory again,
to lift the heart higher and light up the mind.

They’re telling the story again,
of wisdom and courage overcoming all;
those tales of victory again,
love rising triumphantly while evil falls.

2nd Verse:

And, like a band of heroes, we will always be
as long as loves in the heart of humanity;
whether we’re fighting men or monsters; lords or gods,
together, we’ll conquer insurmountable odds.

And like a band of heroes, when we face our fears;
we’ll see our fears are not as fierce as they appear;
just fight for what you love and what you think is right;
and you won’t lack the courage or the strength to fight.

Chorus:
They’re telling the story again,
the story of hope for all humankind;
praising human glory again,
to lift the heart higher and light up the mind.

They’re telling the story again,
of wisdom and courage overcoming all;
those tales of victory again,
love rising triumphantly while evil falls.
