It's just like God

It’s just like God to choose
A caged bird to sing a song of freedom
So others may be set free.
To choose the humble and
Strategically place them
In authority for all to see.

It’s just like God to choose
One who gets easily lost
To show others the way.
and to choose
a sinner, saved by His grace
to reach out to the human race.

It’s just like God to choose
The broken to heal
The weak to show His strength
The foolish to confound the wise
To choose..
Humanity to reveal His Deity
A clay jar to hold His surpassing Glory
The darkness to let a light shine
Suffering to birth compassion in others
The dust of this earth to wear His holiness.

It’s just like God.
It’s just like God
To choose..
To choose you and me.
