This week’s featured song story comes to us from Casting Crowns. We’re excited to share with you the story behind their song “Crazy People.”
“I think all the people that we would consider heroes in the Bible, the things that they would do & the steps that they would take to follow a God that they’ve never seen…the world sees that as crazy. But I say this world could use some more crazy people. We need some people to start loving people like crazy, serving like crazy, giving like crazy and being the people that God needs us to be to reach the people that God loves. It’s going to take us stepping out of the ordinary and doing stuff somebody just might just call crazy. Maybe it’s time you get crazy!” – Mark Hall (Casting Crowns)

“Crazy People” Lyrics
Who builds a boat with no clouds in sight
Who walks up to a giant and picks a fight
Who turns a lion’s den into a petting zoo
Who can have church in a fiery furnace
Well I’ll tell you who
Crazy people trusting Jesus
Following Him wherever He leads us
Kingdom Seekers
Walk by faith believers
Here’s the church
Here’s the steeple
Here’s to all God’s crazy people
Who brings a bible into a public school
Who shares the gospel even when the world calls them a fool
Who’s not afraid to go against the flow
Well cancel me and call me one of those
Cuz I’m one of those
Crazy people trusting Jesus
Following Him wherever He leads us
Kingdom Seekers
Walk by faith believers
Here’s the church
Here’s the steeple
Here’s to all God’s crazy people
I’m one of those crazy people
Who sees the world as a mission field, crazy
Who talks to Jesus like he’s real, crazy
Who believes the words in red, crazy
Who says he’s coming back again, crazy
Crazy people trusting Jesus
Following Him wherever He leads us
Kingdom Seekers
Walk by faith believers
Here’s the church
Here’s the steeple
Here’s to all God’s crazy people
His crazy people
I’m one of those crazy people
