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 Love had to reach so far

 And as he held the Savior in his arms, he must have thought (Chorus)
