Struck down and blinded by the light

Struck down and blinded by the light,
the sudden realisation,
that love is broader than a creed,
encompassing each nation.

Laid low until grace raised him up,
restoring more than vision,
this Saul, now Paul, resumed his way
while curbing his derision.

Verses 3-4 follow

Tune: BARBARA ALLEN; DOMINUS REGIT ME
Metre: 8.7.8.7
