Benson, George - Greatest Love Of All Lyrics






I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody is searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone to fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me

[Chorus:]
I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

[Chorus]

And if by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love

    I came to like George when I listened to "Got to be there" and "You're the love of my life". As George gets older, he sings " Nothing's gonna change my love for you" and "Thr greatest love of all"with so much touching flavor. 👍

    This song was written by Linda Creed as she was struggling with breast cancer. The music was by Michael Masser. She will die after 10 years, give or take, of the fight. Back then cancer was a sure death sentence and a quick one. https://www.discogs.com/artist/387498-Linda-Creed

    Siempre pensé que era canción de Whitney Houston. Que desilusión...

    Perhaps not everyone knows that the lyrics for this song were written by Linda Creed. When this song was sung by Gerorge Benson it was not particularly successful. When, a few years later, this song was sung by Withney Houston it became a worldwide success. Unfortunately, Linda became seriously ill and died, but she had time to see that her masterpiece had had a well-deserved worldwide success.

    I know Whitney recorded this, but this is the only version of this song.

  73. J.... P....

    I was 13 and going through some harsh reality and i had no one i could trust. This song i heard after my sister left me the album and it became my mantra. After all you cannot truly love someone else until you learn to love yourself first!! I love George's original but i respect Whitney's love of this song 😙

  74. J.... P....

    He has the most incredible eyes👁

  75. E.... M....

    The lyrics are everything


    Then you throw the beautiful music and the incredible voice on top. wow

  76. W.... C....

    Didn't realise this was the original version... I always thought Whitney was.. But who cares! I love this version too!!!

    The world is misguided by economy/political factors and in chaos. There are always impartial answers in soul music/smooth jazz.
