God Chose the Weak

God Chose the Weak is a powerful and reflective Christian worship song about God’s amazing grace and His ability to work through the humble, the overlooked, and the broken. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 1:27—”God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong”—this song is a declaration that God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness.

Through gentle yet uplifting melodies and deeply encouraging lyrics, God Chose the Weak reminds us that we don’t have to be perfect or strong to be used by God. His grace is not earned by merit but poured out on those who trust Him fully, even in their lowest moments. It’s a song for anyone who feels unworthy, unseen, or not enough—and a bold encouragement that God sees value in what the world dismisses.

Perfect for church worship teams, youth ministries, personal devotion, and quiet worship sets, this song invites every listener to embrace the truth that God’s glory shines brightest in our weakness. It offers a message of hope, identity, and purpose—especially for those who feel inadequate or discouraged.

If you are looking for a worship song that is biblically grounded, emotionally honest, and spiritually empowering, God Chose the Weak is a beautiful reminder of the upside-down grace of God’s Kingdom.

Lyrics


[Verse 1]
We were not rich
We were not wise
But You still called us
And opened our eyes

You saw our pain
You saw our shame
But You gave mercy
And called our name

[Chorus]
God chose the weak
To show His power
God lifts the poor
And gives them honor
Not many were mighty
Not many were strong
But God chose the weak
To sing His song

[Verse 2]
The world says more
Means you are great
But You choose hearts
That trust and wait

No crown or fame
No earthly prize
Just faith in Jesus
Is what You prize

[Chorus – repeat]
God chose the weak
To show His power
God lifts the poor
And gives them honor
Not many were mighty
Not many were strong
But God chose the weak
To sing His song

[Bridge – optional, simple]
We won’t boast in what we own
We will trust in Christ alone

[Final Chorus – joyful finish]
God chose the weak
To show His power
God lifts the poor
And gives them honor
Not many were mighty
Not many were strong
But God chose the weak
To sing His song
