damascus road Lyrics by Josiah Queen

I was headed to a white washed grave
I thought I had it all but I was far away
I was righteous but in my own eyes
It’s hard to see the truth when you lose your sight
Oh I lost my sight

I threw stones
You threw a lifeline
I was blinded like a deer up in the headlights
Heart was cold
Filled with hate I
Clenched a fist and fought against
Life in Your light
When I was still Your foe
You met me there on Damascus road

I was running
But so was God
I couldn’t slow You down
With all the things I’ve done
Oh hallelujah this broken man’s been saved
And all my life I give to the King of grace

Oh I threw stones
You threw a lifeline
I was blinded like a deer up in the headlights
Heart was cold
Filled with hate I
Clenched a fist and fought against
Life in Your light
And I was still Your foe
You met me there on Damascus road

Whoa on Damascus road
Whoa You healed my heart of stone
Whoa

I threw stones
You threw a lifeline
I was blinded like a deer in the headlights
Heart was cold
Filled with hate I
Clenched a fist and fought against
Life in Your light
And I was still Your foe
You met me there on Damascus road

I was headed to a white washed grave
Until I saw the light
And He changed my name
