Songtext von Foolishness

What wisdom hangs a man up on a tree As the only way to end my misery? What kind of thinking made the way to heaven hard A crooked journey down a straight and narrow path? CHORUS How can I make sense of this? I am living in God's foolishness All the money and the power and the cleverness Of this world, defeated by foolishness Foolish things shame the kings What wisdom puts the prophet in a desert place Nobody to hear a single word he says? And what wisdom brings reward from suffering Where if I want to win I have to lose everything? CHORUS Cool water from a rock Salvation from a Nazarene Dethroned for the unloved A cross in the heart of God CHORUS I reasoned myself to death but I was saved by foolishness All my big ideas made such a mess But I'm clean now, saved from foolishness Foolish things made a king from a fool
