The words
Saint Paul, the man Jesus turned around! (Turned around!)
Saul was smart and sure he was right, he put Jesus's friends in jail.A light flashed down, so big and bright, Saul fell down on the dusty trail!
Jesus turned him around! (Turned around!)Saul was going the wrong way,Jesus called his name that day,Jesus turned him around! (Turned around!)
For three dark days he sat and prayed, a kind man put his hands on Saul.The dark was gone and he could see! Baptized, brand new, we call him Paul!
Jesus turned him around! (Turned around!)Saul was going the wrong way,Jesus called his name that day,Jesus turned him around! (Turned around!)
Paul was put in jail for Jesus, but Paul was not afraid.At midnight, he and Silas sang, and Jesus was there as they prayed.
Jesus turned him around! (Turned around!)Saul was going the wrong way,Jesus called his name that day,Jesus turned him around! (Turned around!)
Jesus, You went looking for Saul, and You come looking for me.When I do wrong, make me brand new, Jesus, turn me around! (Turn me around!)Saint Paul, the man Jesus turned around! (Turned around!)
The words in gold are the children’s part: the grown-up sings the line, the little ones shout the echo back.
