Im 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
Chorus "Why me" (Why me?) Im just a simple man of trade Why him? with all the rulers in the world? (Rulers in the world) Why here? (Why here?) Inside this stable filled with hay Why her? shes just an ordinary girl (Ordinary girl) Now, Im 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 couldve been If Jesus had come as He deserved There wouldve been no Bethlehem No lowly sheperds at His birth But Joseph knew the reason Love had to reach so far And as he held the Savior in his arms
He mustve thought
(chorus)
Now Im not one to second guess what angels have to say But this is such a strange way to save to world
This is such a strange way (strange way) Such a strange way (strange way) Such a strange way (strange way)
