The Road to Damascus

This AI Hard Rock song was inspired by Saul and his conversion and name change to Paul. [Intro] Jerusalem was burning hot Under a ruthless desert sky One man carried papers of death Certain he was serving God Dragging believers from their homes Breaking families in the night Certain he was standing for truth Certain he was in the right [Verse 1] I watched the followers scatter At the mention of my name I chased them from city to city Bound by fury, bound by shame Every step upon the highway Every mile beneath the sun I thought I was the hunter Never knew I was the one [Pre-Chorus] Then the heavens split open Like thunder rolling through the sky [Chorus] A light brighter than the desert sun Knocked me down where I stood The voice of glory called my name And shattered all I understood Everything I thought I knew Fell apart and came undone I was blinded so that I could see By the Holy One [Verse 2] Dust and darkness all around me No horizon left in sight The hands that once brought fear and judgment Now reached helpless through the night Three long days of broken silence Three long nights without a plan The mighty hunter became a beggar The proud became a desperate man [Pre-Chorus] Then mercy walked beside me Where pride could never go [Chorus] A light brighter than the desert sun Knocked me down where I stood The voice of glory called my name And shattered all I understood Everything I thought I knew Fell apart and came undone I was blinded so that I could see By the Holy One [Bridge] Why do you persecute Me? The words still echo through my soul Not condemnation Not destruction But a call to come home The scales fell from my eyes The chains fell from my hands The road that led to death Now led me to His plans The hunter became the witness The enemy became the friend The man who tried to stop the Gospel Would preach it to the end [Final Chorus] I was blinded so that I could see! Lost myself to be set free! The light brighter than the desert sun Turned my defeat into victory! I was blinded so that I could see! The King of Kings reached down for me! From Damascus to the ends of earth I'll proclaim His majesty! [Outro] From darkness into glory From hatred into grace The road that changed forever The course of one man's fate The light still shines The voice still calls And every chain can fall! I WAS BLINDED SO THAT I COULD SEE! I hope you enjoyed the song.
