ON THE ROAD TO DAMASCUS
By Roy Merritt
(A Humorous take on the life of the Apostle Paul)

I was on the road to Damascus to give them Christians hell
I was on the road to Damascus and never had I failed
I was on the road to Damascus when suddenly struck blind
I was on my way to Damascus I had Jesus on my mind

And then there before me was Jesus Christ Himself
Whom they say was with God and in Heaven there He dwelt
And he asked why I persecuted Him didn’t the Romans do enough
Why I made life hard for Christians on them so tough

I told Him I was a Jew Yahweh was my Lord
And following you Jesus Christ I surely can’t afford
I’ll tell you why you should Saul that too I’ll tell 
If you don’t follow me in death awaits you hell

Well that was enough for me and on I went to the city
Still blind and full of fear and much was the pity
So I went to see Ananias who sprinkled water o’er my head
And then I was with the Christians and did was Jesus said

I was full of grief and shame for what I’d done to Stephen
And Jesus said to me relax now I say we’re even
So He sent me on to Antioch with Barnabas by my side
And on to Asia Minor and there we did reside

I wrote a letter to the Galatians recounted why I came
And all that I had done and cast away my shame
And I blinded Elymas the Magician whose words sore disputed
What we said to others our teachings he refuted
