A Strange Way to Save the World

Ephraim Lewis


Sure He Must Have Been Surprised 
At Where This Road Had Taken Him 
'cause Never in a Million Lives 
Would He Had 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...

(Chorus) 
Why Me, I'm Just a Simple Man of Trade 
Why Him, With All the Rulers in 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...

(Chorus)

Now I'm Not One to Second Guess What Angels Have to Say 
But This Is Such a Strange Way to Save the World 
...this Is Such a Strange Way to Save the World...saving the World
