A Strange Way To Save The World by Michael Crawford 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 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
The 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 in the world?
Why here inside this stable filled with hay?
Why me, I'm 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 to second guess
What angels have to say
But this is such a strange way
To save the world

Such a strange way
What a strange way
Such a strange way
To save the world
