I was only able to find versions sung by others so I decided to upload this as the beautiful song it is.

Album: Recollection: The Best of Nichole Nordeman

Artist: Nichole Nordeman

Lyrics:

There are times when faith and common sense do not align,

when hardcore evidence of you is hard to find,

and I am silenced in the face of argumenative debate,

it's a long hill it's a lonley climb. Maybe it's true.

CHORUS:

Cause they want proof,

They want proof of all these mysteries I claim,

Cause only fools would want to chant a dead man's name.

I would be a fool for you all because you asked me to.

A simpleton who's seeming naive,

I do believe You came and made Yourself a fool for me.

I admit that in my darkest hours I've asked what if,

What if we created some kind of man made faith like this,

Out of good intention or emotional invention,

and after life is through there will be no You.

Cause they want proof of all these miracles I claim,

Cause only fools believe that men can walk on waves.

Maybe it's true.

Unaware of popularity,

and unconcerned with dignity,

You made me free.

That's proof enough for me.

I would be a fool for You,

Only if You asked me to,

A simpletonwho's only think of,

The cause of love.

I will speak Jesus name,

and if that makes me crazy,

they can call me crazed,

I'm happy to be seemingly naive,

I do believe You came and

made Yourself a fool for me.

Who else sings this song? I love the message in it, and I'd love to hear others' interpretations.

This song is saying that people perceived Jesus as a fool, and that she doesn't care if people perceive her as a fool, because Jesus went through being thought of as foolish for us.

I'm just going through all the songs. I used to be obsessed with This Mystery. I would always want mom to turn it on in the car. I loved all the songs. Oh I miss them. And now that I finally found them again.... I'm such a crybaby I'm so happy ^-^

The Bible is an extremely unreliable source. If you care to learn there are hundreds of internal and external contradictions you can find.

If you are arguing that we can never be sure about proof for something then your personal feelings certainly aren't any better. Don't start an argument on flimsy foundations and then tell others to back off.

You. Do. Not. Get. To. Tell. Others. What. To. Believe. PERIOD. Get it into your head. It makes me mad when people try to tell others what to believe. It doesn't affect you, so just don't say anything; we get it often enough, we don't need it to be re-iterated YET AGAIN what you want us to believe. I may be a fool, but that's my problem, not yours. Thats what this song is about. Back off. My faith is my faith is what it is, and you're not going to change it. So stop trying.

What is proof? Something that everyone says is true, right? People claim that because of a, b is automatically true. Well, is a right? And why do you think a exists? Personally, I think "a" exists because God wants us to agree with "b". Back off.

I love this song!! I woke up singing her songs for no strange reason. Funny thing is I haven't listened to her songs in months! Usually I wake up singing in my head these disturbing songs that unconsciously stick to my head from the radio from work. I think it was God talking to me. I used to sing her songs all the way to work, so even thou I'm not the greatest singer I think God wanted me to sing to him again. He's so wonderful!

Actually, the Bible is an extremely reliable source. The New Testament was written around 50-100 AD with the earliest copy dating to 130 AD and 5600 copies being made. Compare this with the writings of Caesar which have the earliest copy dated to 1000 years after the original, yet this text is assumed to be reliable.The gospels were written within 30 years of Jesus' life- any lies or myths surfacing would have quickly been extinguished by the many eyewitnesses still alive at the time of writing.

So? Those are just meaningless words in an old book. What proof do you have that anything you believe is true? If it's all a matter of faith then that's very illogical and irrational thinking. You shouldn't devote your life to something just because you'd like it to be true.

I think that people try to complicate the truth;but if we approach it with an open heart and mind;and pray about it;we can understand it and what God and Jesus-christ are wanting for us-eternal life and salvation. He just wants us to repent,accept him in our hearts;and believe that he can save you and do anything for you in accordance to his holy will-not ours.

Amen-from the moment i picked up the word of God-i knew it was his holy truth;and i never picked it up thinking i could prove it wasn't his truth;it is what it is and always be the Truth-God's holy word.

There will be people that will be ever hearing but never precieving what the Lord has to say. They are spiritually blind and decerned;but we the believers in Christ must stand firm to the end;only those that turn and believe and stand to end will be saved from what's yet is to come-eternal damnation and hell.

God is a crutch and religion breeds arrogance and ignorance. Read a science or philosophy book. Or Just read the bible cover to cover, that's what made me stop believing.

Ditto to you. I'll choose reason, logic, common sense, facts, science, reality, and the laws of physics any day over some good feelings one may have over the idea of an imaginary sky fairy and some 2000 year old book riddled with contradictions, hypocrisy and immorality, a book that was written by illiterate bronze age men. If you actually read your Bible from cover to cover, I guarantee you'd be an atheist as well. I used to know that joy, then I started thinking. Santa = god, both fictional...

I don't go around looking for people to insult but when see a song promoting such a negative attitude I'm not exactly going to feel alright leaving it continue and you shouldn't either.
