All my heritage, my lineage, my works
all my life, my training, all of it,
my pedigree. my proofs of righteousness
All my gain, my life, loss
For I have sinned, fought against Christ
My works misguided, my call
Epiphany on that road
my life turned, by grace
by the gift of Christ, his sacrifice
His disciples, apostles
suffering for Christ
sharing his message
to the ends of the world
that is now my call
