All God's creatures got a place in the choir
Some sing low and some sing higher
Some just hang out like a bird on a wire
Waiting to fly home
All God's children are the apple of His eye
Even the ones we can't stand sometime
But we're coming together just to go outside
And I need something to sing with this neighbor of mine
And that's why grace is so amazing
That's why love is so absurd
And that's why I sing for a God unchanging
That's why I don't care if I look like a fool
All God's people got a reason to live
Joy for the hard days and true love to give
So we raise our hands and lay down our sin
And remember the day our freedom began
That's why grace is so amazing
That's why love is so absurd
And that's why I sing for a God unchanging
That's why I don't care if I look like a fool
His grace is so amazing
That's why love is so absurd
And that's why I sing for a God unchanging
That's why I don't care if I look like a fool
Yeah, I look like a fool
Feeding the hungry, clothing the naked
Giving the homeless a place to rest
Visiting the prisoner, lifting up the lowly
By our fruits may You shine on us
May You shine on us, shine on us, Lord shine on us
That's why grace is so amazing
That's why love is so absurd
And that's why I sing for a God unchanging
That's why I don't care if I look like a fool
His grace is so amazing
That's why love is so absurd
And that's why I sing for a God unchanging
That's why I don't care if I look like a fool
Yeah, I look like a fool
