It Took A Woman
(written by Ray Scarbrough) Chris White Music / BMI
1st verse
Who am I to question
the wisdom of my God,
for choosing valiant men
worthy of applause?
Heros, men of valor,
men of virtue strong & true;
Shepherd boy’s to general’s,
barbarian’s & jews?
But have you ever wondered
where any man would be
without a Godly woman
pray’n on her knees?
Chorus
It took a woman just like Sarah,
who even in old age
was a mother to a nation
while Abraham took center stage.
A Woman waded out in bullrush
to save the child that God would choose
to save Israel’s children
from every scourge & every bruise.
And in a backyard stable
a virgin bore a Son.
To bring God down to man,
it took a woman.
2nd
There’s a single mama liv’n
in the hills of Tennessee,
wip’n noses, pay’n bills
cuz Dad’s an absentee.
But every Sunday morn’n
She wakes her little baby boys
& takes them on to church
cuz that’s the family she enjoys.
Have you ever wondered
where any man would be
without a Godly woman
pray’n on her knees?
