My servant will tell you the road you must take

So go tell the world Paul

I'm counting on you

Three days have gone by Lord

Here comes Ananias with a message for me

He said "Brother Paul, the Lord in the sky

has sent me to heal you and to open your eyes"

I'll send you to the Gentiles

I'll send you to Rome
D
And Paul you will suffer til I call you home

You must sleep on the desert be shipwrecked at sea
D A D
But just go right on preaching the Gospel for me
D
I counted on Adam
A
I counted on Kain
D
I counted on Jonah, but he was the same

I counted on Judas, but he proved untrue

So go tell the world Paul

I'm counting on you
