Love this song. It's a shame they don't make movies like this anymore.

[westongale]

This song never gets old. I am being completely honest here: I have listened to this song somewhere between 50-100 times in the last 48 hours. I'm not even exaggerating!

[SonGoku_]

A single voice is joined by multitudes in song,
With every verse they're finding harmonies
That rise to Heaven sure and strong.
Richer and richer the soil on which they thrive,
and higher a hymn of what it means to be alive

You've got to give a little more than you take,
You've got to leave a little more than was here,
You maybe prideful of the strides you will make,
But keep one thing clear,
You're just a player in a much bigger plan,
And still you have to give it all that you can,
The very measure of your soul is at stake,
You've got to give a little more than you take,

The seasons fly, a man stands where a boy once stood,
His path unfolds and unafraid he walks
in service of a greater good,
Deeper and deeper the lessons he has known,
Over and over the message he is surely being shown

You've got to give a little more than you take,
You've got to leave a little more than was here,
You maybe prideful of the strides you will make,
But keep one thing clear,
You're just a player in a much bigger plan,
And still you have to give it all that you can,

The very measure of your soul is at stake,
You've got to give a little more than you take.

[maer_chen]

Finally a version that has the guitar playing in the beginning. I was lookibg for that because it doesn't feel complete without it. Thank you!

Does anyone else have a happy nostalgia from this song

[tere]

I always cry when I hear this ❤
I find myself humming this often randomly and then I have to revisit the song

[guiandre]

I'm in a dark chapter in life rn, but this song cracks the black darkness and lets me see the small creases of light.

[Takara]

It's both sad and inspiring that the music from both of these films beats any church band I've ever been forced to sit through, even over 20 years later.

[Billy_Lenz]

The first time I watched this movie as an adult I was surprised how blatantly obvious the messages were in the songs. They are still amazing.

[thebanana]

I am always amazed at how simple, yet profound the lyrics of this song are.

[Deaflordezrevenge]

This song touches my soul everytime I hear it.

[bhaddieg]

I don’t care what people say. I love this song and I keep coming back when I’m depressed in life

[mathy]

The intro of this song was also the dreamworks intro on my 'the prince of egypt' vhs. Ah the nostalgia!

[majekmakesmusic]

Anytime I listen to this it gives me inspiration to do more plus I always go back to see the movie again for the 100th time lol

[I_am_always_correct]

How it feels building up settlements in Fallout 4 on a Minutemen playthrough

[israelagalaba]

I was sitting down, playing pokemon when suddenly... this song popped up in my head for the 1st time in like 2 years. What an amazing song. ❤

[beyarose]

How does it make sense that ST of The Prince Of Egypt is on iTunes and THIS isn’t???? Not fair.

[bluBlaq]

Not a believer at all, But I love the message of this. Wish some actual Christians took this songs advice.

[anamicanovic]

Made me think of Over The Hedge before as my DreamWorks Movies and the others too.
