Story behind the song
As a long-term project and challenge to myself, I began writing a Christmas musical. I wanted to tell the entire story (or stories) from the first person perspective of those involved. This one is my idea of what might have been going through Joseph's mind at the time.
Lyrics
VERSE Surely He deserves so much more Surely there's been some mistake With all the palaces And royalty Why would You choose this place? Look at me, I'm just a carpenter Look at her, a simple girl Looking here is not where I Would start to change the world. CHORUS (But) Who am I to question You? Who am I to ever worry? You alone are God on high You alone will reign in glory Who am I that You would use me In Your master plan? Who am I, oh God, but just a man? VERSE Still, I'll do the best I can And teach Him everything I know That's if You want me to Just lead and I will go. Are You sure I'm the one You want? I can't help but think it's odd I'm such a simple man And He is of You, God. CHORUS BRIDGE I thank You for this gift You've given me But I pray You'll help me see What You can see CHORUS
