ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
then they said he walked among them with the nail wounds in his hands,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
that King upon a donkey with a thorn crown on his head.

ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
I found their secret places, they were beaten, they were chained,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch

Then the Man in White, appeared to me,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch

and I was blinded so that I might see, the Man in White

From Alexandria to Antioch their congregation grew,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
I went to the high priest for letters of permission,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
to go to other cities, to see my mission through.

Six days on the hot road to Damascus,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
and just outside the city in the middle of the day,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
a great unearthly light struck and overpowered me,

prostrate on the hot road, I was blinded were I lay.

and through the sound of wind, came a voice so soft and kind,

meant for only me to hear, Saul, why do you persecute me?
