[Intro] [clean arpeggiated electric guitar with light chorus] [Verse 1] [baritone male vocals enter] Could it be that God expected too much When He formed that lump of clay? Did He know the path that we would take That we'd choose to walk away? Did He know His love would be cast aside As self-love took His place? Could it be that God expected too much When He made the human race? [Chorus] [fretless bass enters with melodic slides] God knew, God knew When He looked down on creation God said," It is good." And it can be perfection If man does what he should God knew, God knew That Adam would fall And that he's have to send Son to pay the price for all. [Verse 2] Could it be that we expected too much When we found that life was tough? Could it be we turned too quickly to self Crying God is not enough? Did we pull Him down from His heavenly realm And make Him a regular man? Or is it true, he came down on His own As part of a wonderful plan? [guitar riff] [Verse 3] Could it be that Jesus expected too much As He hung on a tree of shame? When He felt abandoned and cried to the Father Did God even stop to explain? Had God really expected too much When He sent His innocent lamb To give us a way to come back to His love To return to the great I Am? [Chorus 2] God knew, God knew So He gave us a choice Show love for the Father by choosing His Son Let all of God's people rejoice God knew, God knew God gave us all a choice Show love for the Father by choosing His Son Let all of God's people rejoice [guitar fades out]
