Charlie was a fool
Did you hear what he went and did'
He quit his job, threw it away
Gave his life to a bunch of kids

He said he was in love with Jesus
But his friends didn't understand
He could've had it all
But he just smiled and said
That he already did

He saw the big in the small
He saw the beauty in the call
Even when no one else approved
He took the job only a fool would do.

Sarah was a beauty queen
Miss something or another
She took off her crown
Rolled up her sleeves

Gave her life in a mission to others
She said she was in love with Jesus
But her friends called her a fool
They said she'd never find happiness
She just looked at them and smiled
And said she already did.

She saw the big in the small
She saw the beauty in the call
Even when no one else approved
She took the job only a fool would do.

The way of the world, it may look wise
The way of the truth is to realize
Wisdom will only come through
To those who are only the fool.

Show me the big in the small
Show me the beauty in the call
Show me the road that I should chose
I'll take the job only a fool could do.

Show me the big in the small
Show me the wonder of my call
Even when no one else approves
I'll take the job for only a fool
Only a fool, only a fool.
