[verse 1]
traveling in a dried+out country
on a police detail with caesar’s army
i met a strange judean ++ he made a disturbance
and i took my men ’cause the natives were restless
and i said

[chorus 2]
“do your job ’cause the man’s outnumbered
we’d better go and get up there
can’t you see that they’ll tear him asunder
you better run – you better take others”

[turnaround]

[verse 2]
i rescued the man – it was paul
he goes, “please good sir, we truly must talk”
i said, “do you speak the right language?”
he just smiled, he came from a benjamite family
but he said

[chorus 2]
“i come from a land far from here
with greek and romanesque culture
can you please let them hear me once, sir?”
i said, “all right”, and let him face the mob a while
[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
lysius – that is my name
and that paul he had much to say
he said, “christianity i’m defending
although i once was its grandest enemy
but jesus

[chorus 3]
spoke to me with a voice like thunder
and he did show me i’d blundered
can you help, can you help but wonder
why did i run from everything i was?”

(“yes, people”) listenin’ to him i wondered
if really paul was outnumbered
(yeah) ’cause if he’s right and jesus is up there (numbered, numbered)
he’s better off ++ i’d rather take those odds

if you want the chapter number
where we met paul and went from there
in the book of the acts ++ it’s somewhere, ooo yeah
in 21 through 28, uh huh

(“people”) listenin’ to him i wondered, ooo yeah
if really paul was outnumbered
(yeah+yo) ’cause if he’s right and jesus is up there (yeah+yo yeah outnumbered)
he’s better off – i’d rather take those odds
listenin’ to him i wondered (listenin’ to him i wondered)
if really paul was outnumbered (yeah+yo)
