Michael Card - God's Own Fool lyrics
Your rating:
Seems I've imagined Him all of my life As the wisest of all of mankind But if God's Holy wisdom is foolish to men He must have seemed out of His mind For even His family said He was mad And the priest say a demon's to blame But God in the form of this angry young man Could not have seemed perfectly sane Chorus We in our foolishness thought we were wise He played the fool and He opened our eyes And we in our weakness believed we were strong He became helpless to show we were wrong And so we follow God's own fool For only the foolish can tell Believe the unbelievable Come be a fool as well So come lose our life for a carpenter's son For a man who had died for a dream And you'll feel the faith His first followers had And you'll feel the weight of the beam So surrender the hunger to say you must know Have the courage to say I believe For the power of paradox opens your eyes And blinds those who say they can see Chorus So we follow God's own Fool For only the foolish can tell Believe the unbelievable, come be a fool as well
