Year 6 Assembly Song - World's Greatest

Lucky year 6 have the privilege of leading our first assembly of the year. Here's the song I'll be teaching you in your first music lessons this week. Try and learn the lyrics, be aware that this video is slightly higher and a little different to the version we'll be singing!

The World's Greatest by R.Kelly

 I am a mountain,
I am a tall tree.
I am a swift wing
sweeping the country.
I am a river
Down in the valley
I am a vision
I can see clearly

If anybody asks you who I am
Just stand up tall look'm in the face and say

 I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey I made it
I'm the world's greatest.
I'm that little bit of hope 
When my back's up 'gainst the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

I am a giant,
I am an eagle
I am a lion
down in the jungle
I am a marching band
I am the people
I am a helping hand
I am a hero

If anybody asks you who I am
Just stand up tall look'm in the face and say

 I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey I made it
I'm the world's greatest.
I'm that little bit of hope 
When my back's up 'gainst the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

In the ring of life I'll rain love
and the world will notice a king
Where there is darkness I'll shine a light
and the mirrors of success reflect in me.

I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey I made it
I'm the world's greatest.
I'm that little bit of hope 
When my back's up 'gainst the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

 (repeat chorus)

      Don't worry if you can't memorise it yet Jamie - you only learnt it today. I'm sure you'll have all the words easily in time for the assembly.
