Saul, was an up and coming pharisee

He knew exactly what he wanted to be

His life was mapped out, without any doubt

Killing Christians was what he was about.

2

Off to Caiaphas the high priest Saul went

With authority and papers they sent

Him off on a journey, he wouldn’t forget

So off to Damascus he went.

3

Twas on his journey that day

That Jesus spoke to Saul to say

“Just what are you doing – to my followers Saul

It just cannot continue this way”.

4

Right now I will make you blind

Until – you’ve changed your mind

And relinquish your deeds to my followers indeed

For I have great things of you in my mind.

5

From that moment on Saul was blind

He was led by the hand as a child

To Damascus he went, just as he was sent

To wait for instructions, in due time!

6

Ananias was Gods chosen man

He said “no not I – not this man”

But God said “do not fear, or shed a tear

I have great things in mind just you see”

7

So off he went to see Saul

And then he renamed him, Brother Paul

Scales fell from his eyes, and to Paul’s surprise

He could see clearly again once more.

8

He said – God’s work you must now begin

To make amends for your terrible sin

To the gentiles you must go, to preach the Gospel, you know

A witness as to what happened to you.

9

So off Paul went on his travels

North / south, east / west, back and forth

Preaching and teaching, set up a new Church

An example to all of us now!

10

So what does Paul’s story tell us?

About our lives and our work here on earth

Are we more like Paul, surely not the destructive Saul?

Cause Jesus will meet us – one day!
