On Damascus Road

Paul walked the lonely road
He shook his fist in the face of God
And tried to stop the good news
Of God's redemption plan
God said "I’ve had enough
I'll bring you down so I can lift you up
And the one you prosecute
Will be the one who helps you stand"

Three days he had to wait
At the end of a street call straight
For one to come and touch his eyes
So he can see his brand-new life

On Damascus Road, he saw a light
Fell on his knees and lost his sight
He knew right then that his life
Was not his own, oh...
Then and there, he had to chose
He had it all to gain, he had it all to lose
When he met the Lord on Damascus Road

I walked the same old road
Trying hard to bear my load
All I hope to find
Was someone to sympathize, yeah
Then He reached down to me
And said, "Child, come and see
I'm the one who died for you
I’ll be the one who gives you life"

No need to hesitate
Just leave your past mistakes
And that was the time and the place
I choose the path I take

On Damascus Road, I lost my sight
Fell on my knees, and saw the light
I realized that my life was not my own, no
Then and there, I had to chose
I had it all to gain, I had it all to lose
When I met the Lord on Damascus Road

Oh, on Damascus Road, I lost my sight
I fell on my knees, and I saw the light
I realized, that my life was not my own
Oh, no, oh, no
Then and there, I had to chose
I had it all to gain, I had it all to lose
When I met the Lord
Oh, when I met the Lord on Damascus Road
On Damascus Road, yeah
