Michael Card - Gods own fool

It se^Cems I've imagined Him a^Gll of my l^Cife As the wi^Fsest of a^Cll of manki^Gnd F C G Am G-F But if God's holy wisdom is foolish to man Gsus-G C He must have seemed out of His mind For e^Fven His fa^Cmily s^Gaid He was ^Cmad F C Gsus-G And the priest said, "A demon's to blame," F C G Am G-F So God in the form of this angry young man Gsus-G C F Could not have seemed perfectly sane

When ^Fwe in our fo^Colishness th^Gought we were w^Cise ^AmHe played the fool and He o^Fpened our eyes ^CWhen we in our we^Fakness bel^Gieved we were s^Amtrong He became hel^Fpless to s^Ghow we were w^Crong ^F And ^Fso we fo^Cllow G^God's own f^Cool F C Gsus-G For only the foolish can tell F C - G - Am G-F Believe the unbelievable Gsus-G C And come be a fool as well

So c^Come lose your life for a c^Garpenter's S^Con For a m^Fadman who d^Cied for a d^Gream F C G Am G-F Then you'll have the faith His first followers had Gsus-G C And you'll feel the weight of the beam So su^Frrender th^Ce hung^Ger to say y^Cou must know F C Gsus-G And the courage to say I believe F C G Am G-F Let the power of paradox open your eyes Gsus-G C F And blind those who say they can see

And ^Fso we fo^Cllow G^God's own f^Cool F C Gsus-G For only the foolish can tell F C - G - Am G-F Believe the unbelievable Gsus-G C And come be a fool as well
