 1  Not many wise men now are called, 
       not many noble brethren,
    Not many mighty chosen ones, 
       for you see your calling:
    Sons of God, you are called, 
       not because of greatness;
    Even the wisdom of mankind 
       is to God but foolish.

 2  God chose the foolish of the world;
       He chose the weak and base things;
    He chose the things which are despised,
       that no flesh should glory.
    Sons of God, you are called,
       not because of greatness;
    You who are called and now in Christ
       shall confound the mighty.

 3  Even the foolishness of God,
       wiser by far than man is;
    Even the weakness of our God,
       stronger far than man is.
    Sons of God, you are called,
       not because of greatness;
    Let them who glory boast in Christ,
       not in their own greatness.
