A Strange Way to Save the World Lyrics

I'm sure he must have been surprised
At where this road had taken him
Cause never in a million lives
Would he have dreamed of Bethlehem

And standing at the manger
He saw with his own eyes
The message from the angel
Come to life, and Joseph said

Why me, I'm just a simple man of trade
Why Him, with all the rulers of the world
Why here, inside this stable filled with hay
Why her, she's just an ordinary girl
Now I'm not one to second guess
What angels have to say
But, this is such a strange way to save the world

To think of how it could have been
If Jesus had come as He deserved
There would have been no Bethlehem
No lowly shepherds at His birth

But, Joseph knew the reason
Love had to reach so far

And as he held the Savior in his arms
He must have thought

Why me, I'm just a simple man of trade
Why Him, with all the rulers of the world
Why here, inside this stable filled with hay
Why her, she's just an ordinary girl
Now I'm not one to second guess
What angels have to say
But, this is such a strange way to save the world

(Now I'm not one)
Now I'm not one to second guess
What angels have to say
But, this is such a strange way
(Strange way)
A Strange way (strange way)
This is such a strange way
(Strange way)
To save the world

This is such a strange way
This is such a strange way
I don't claim to really know
Why You gave this King
But I really thank You, thank You
(Thank You for Your Song)
Thank You, thank You
(On this Christmas day)
Thank You, thank You
(We praise and glorify Your name on this day)
