Lyrics

Brothers and sisters,
I want you to know
That the Good News I preached to you
Was not made up by human beings.

I did not get it from people,
Nor did anyone teach it to me,
But Jesus Christ
Showed it to me.

You've heard of my past life
In the Jewish faith.
I attacked the church of God
And I tried to destroy it.

I was becoming a leader
In the Jewish religion, I did
I did better than most
Most others my age.


I tried harder than anyone else
To follow the teachings
Handed down by our ancestors.

But God had special plans for me
And set me apart
For his work even before
I was born

He called me through his grace
And showed his son to me
So that I might tell the Good News
About him to those who are not Jewish

Instrumental

He called me through his grace
And showed his son to me
So that I might tell the Good News
About him to those who are not Jewish
