On the Way To Damascus

Saul was the brutal type in being the life that he had always led He didn't believe that Jesus hype in wanting all the Christians dead And he went about doing so not a compassionate bone in his body This all the burly man ever knew for his heart was unable to see Going to Damascus for each name, the high priest being equal in duplicity He headed through the desert so game, as his cost of labor was not free He was fearless and backed by the law with punishments so deathly severe Every Christian had to fear Saul but especially at times when he was near But as Saul went about this journey the Lord Himself finally would remind As His Heavenly Light Saul would see and such true sorrow Saul would find Falling down onto his knees and calling out with such loud sobs and cries But the Lord had already heard his plea thus His Light in making him realize This once feared Christian killer who would hold any man, woman or child liable Well he now became Paul a real Christian pillar the most prolific writer in the Bible So do not cast the unlawful and the sinner away for the Lord did not give you this job For them He just wants you to pray, for it is the Lord Himself who will make them sob Acts 9:1-9
