Paul's Ministry Lyrics

Paul's Ministry

The Lord said "Stand up! Paul, and dry up your tears.
You must preach my Gospel for many long years.
I'll send you to Damascus, the Street that's called Straight,
There you'll see Ananias. and there you must wait."

Chorus:
"I counted on Adam, I counted on Cain.
I counted on Jonah, but he was the same;
I counted on Judas, but he proved untrue.
Now, go tell the world, Paul, I'm counting on you."

Three days have gone by, Lord, and still I can't see.
Now, here's my brother talking to me.
He said "Brother Paul, the Lord in the skies,
Has sent me to see you and open your eyes."

(steel)

I'll send you to the Gentiles, I'll send you to Rome.
But, you'll have to suffer till I call you home.
You'll sleep on the desert, be wrecked on the sea.
But, keep right on preaching my great name for Me.

Many years have gone by, Lord, and still I've been true.
But now I must leave, this field with You.
I've finished my course, Lord, I've taught in your name,
I'm sure there are others who will do the same.

"I counted on Adam, I counted on Cain.
I counted on Jonah, but he was the same
I counted on Judas, but he proved untrue.
Now, go tell the world, Paul, I'm counting on you."
