I'm sure he must have been surprised
At where this road had taken him
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
If I would come with them
If Jesus had come to see this earth
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 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
This is such a strange way
Such a strange way
Yeah, this is such a strange way
