The Greatest Story Ever Told - Avalon sound check (1997)

Avalon's pre-telecast sound check for CBN's 700 Club television taping.
As documented in the previously posted video "Avalon & Twila Paris", Avalon accompanied Twila to a taping of The 700 Club at CBN studios in Virginia Beach, VA in the spring of 1997 while on Twila's "Where I Stand" tour. After taping one song backing Ms. Paris, the group then pre-recorded a tune of their own. This footage is of the group line-checking stage monitors before the actual broadcast recording was taped. The run-though was also a camera angle rehearsal for the CBN crew.
Their debut Album 'Avalon' had just released a few months before. "The Greatest Story Ever Told" was the second single from that project. By the time of this taping, the song had already reached #1 on the radio charts.

Saudades do Avalon, essa formação é uma das melhores.

[@Paul_Miguel]

Some days your own resolve is strong
And other days you bend
it's two steps forward, one step back
and a stumble now and then
You wonder if you'll ever really make the difference
you've prayed that you will
Well, I know that prayer will be fulfilled 'cause
Your life woven day by day
is a new design of the glory God displays
on the canvas of creation
Through the poem of history
in the pattern of redemption
running through the tapestry
Your life in Christ can be
the greatest story ever told
You cannot see the hands of God
or feel the grace that flows
from Him through you to those you touch
In ways you'll never know
you cannot measure worth by human standards
That's always a lie
oh, you have to see through heaven's eyes how..
In the light of eternity
Standing face to face you will finally see
for the very first time you'll understand
your perfect place in the master plan and how...

[@j.m.r.f6286]
