Saul was breathing murder and violence upon the early disciples He journeyed to Damascus to arrest and persecute them Along the way a flash of light blinded him, he heard the voice of Jesus He couldn’t see but the voice told him to continue to Damascus
Saul was struck down by the light For three days no drink nor food Anannias prayed for him The scales fell from his eyes
On the road to Damascus It was there Saul was set free On the road to Damascus Granted life eternally
I’d never had much time for preachers, always pushing the same old lies If somebody shoved a bible in my face there was a strong chance of violence I lived my way, didn’t need their God, I did just what I wanted Then one day I heard the voice of Jesus calling me to a new way
Something touched me deep within I could not hide from my own sin Something called me this I knew The voice of Jesus in my heart
On the road to Damascus It was there Saul was set free On the road to Damascus Granted life eternally
We’re on the road! (x4)
As I moved forth in my new faith I could see a parallel Just like Saul I came upon my own road to Damascus I was on the path to denigrate and persecute them So convinced I was better than them, I’d do anything to prove it When I heard the call I did not think that anyone would believe me I’d lived for hate and stood for the destruction of religion Fortunately I found many who would accept me Empowered and free I live solely for the gospel’s purpose
Set free by the precious blood of Jesus New life, new way I am now living Just like Saul’s life I have been transformed My sole purpose is to share the gospel
When Saul arrived in Damascus he began to preach boldly All the people could not believe that this was the same man I’ve seen this in my life as I’ve entered into the new way People cannot believe the change in me, the fruit of the Holy Spirit
Barnabus was Saul’s ally Convinced others he had changed In my life my friends in Christ Have done exactly the same
On the road to Damascus It was there Saul was set free On the road to Damascus Granted life eternally
