By Surprise cover
02. I Wonder
Album: By Surprise
Artist: Joy Williams
         
 

Pondering mysteries with a girlfriend over tazoberry tea
And an open Bible
There we were asking all the deep questions about
Life and love and God and… and how it all came to be

And why this and why that and why me and why not and why
And why do I think this way?
I wonder why…

I wonder, wonder, wonder why
I wonder, wonder why
All of these questions echo in my mind
I wonder, wonder why

Throughout the rest of the conversation
I kept coming back to one thing I don’t understand
Why would God leave all of heaven’s glory
Just to come and live and die as a man?

And why grace and why mercy and why give it all for me, and why
And why does He love this way?
I wonder…

I wonder, wonder, wonder why
I wonder, wonder why
His love is so rich and deep and strong and wide
I wonder, wonder why

I wonder, wonder, wonder why
I wonder, wonder why
All of these questions echo in my mind
I wonder, wonder why

Every little thing that my mind can question
Just leads be back to one thing, God’s love for me

I wonder why Your love is so amazing
I just can’t believe it
It’s so rich and wide
I wonder why

CHORUS
