Paul Lyrics

I don't want to brag but there's something you should know

Maybe it will help you when you are feeling low

Think about what I went through and then you will agree

Being you is nowhere near as hard as being me

I was beaten with a rod three times and five times with a whip

In the sea a night and day that time we lost our ship

I was chained in a dungeon and was run out of town

But by the grace of God I never let it get me down

I don't want to brag but I really want to say

You may think that what you do is no more than okay

I was thinking they were letters turns out they were more

And you can get a copy now at almost any store

I wrote the Romans and Corinthians Corinthians again

I wrote Galatians and Ephesians Philippians Colossians

Thessalonians twice and Timmy two times too

Titus and Philemon and yes I wrote the Jews

I don't want to brag but whatever you have done

It's not as bad as what I did when I was young

Of all the sinners on the earth I believe I am the chief

I hope that brings you hope and maybe some relief

I persecuted the church for my own glory and gain

I chased believers down and I brought them back in chains

I tortured the sheep while I feasted with the goats

And when they stoned Stevie I stood by with the coats

I don't want to brag but listen to me now

The stuff I did all on my own was pies from a cow

The good stuff wasn't mine it was Jesus Christ in me

And he will do the same in you if you just let him be

The dead were brought to life and the devils cast away

I was caught up into heaven I heard words I cannot say

The good news was preached in places near and far

Over ten thousand miles and I didn't have a car
