It's funny how a big ol' fish can hear Your voice
Find one man in the whole ocean and swallow him whole
Because You said soIt's funny how a little plant can hear Your voice
And grow as big as a tent to give that man a home
Because You said soAnd You speak to me all the time
And I can't obey You to save my lifeWell, I can but I don't and I want to but I won't
And I don't do what I want to
I do what I don't mean to and I'm confused
It's funny how a fish can obey You but I can'tIt's funny how the bright ol' sun can hear Your voice along its way
Stop in the middle of the sky for an entire day
Because You said soIt's funny how a donkey can hear Your voice
And talk instead of bray to set Your child on His way
Because You said soAnd You speak to me all the time
And I can't obey You to save my lifeWell, I can but I don't and I want to but I won't
And I don't do what I want to
I do what I don't mean to and I'm confused
It's funny how a fish can obey You but I can'tYou speak to me all the time
Lighting my path with Your words of life
But I can't obey You no matter how hard I tryI guess, I can but I don't and I want to but I won't
And I don't do what I want to
I do what I don't mean toAnd I can but I don't and I want to but I won't
And I don't do what I want to
I do what I don't mean to and I'm confusedIt's funny how a fish can obey You
How a plant can obey You
How the sun can obey You
And a donkey can obey You
It seems like everything can obey You but I can't
