I Sought the Lord
Parody of "I Fought the Law" performed by The Bobby Fuller Four and written by Sonny Curtis
(Acts 16:1-3; 1 Timothy 6:12; 2 Timothy 1:2-5, 3:14-15; 1 Corinthians 4:17; Philippians 2:19)
Well, they came and brought news of God's Son
I sought the Lord as a small one
I sought the Lord as a small one
Believed like Mommy and my grandmom
I sought the Lord as a small one
I sought the Lord as a small one
I met Paul early, and I feel so glad
I'm just like a faithful son
Well, he's my pastor; I have a dad
I sought the Lord as a small one
I sought the Lord as a small one
My father's Greek, but I'm a Christian
I sought the Lord as a small one
I sought the Lord as a small one
I miss Lystra; we had a good run
I sought the Lord as a small one
I sought the Lord as a small one
I left my family on the heels of that
To spread my faith in the Son
Well, He's the best — though I'm just a lad
I sought the Lord as a small one
I sought the Lord as a small one
Acts 16:1
Paul came to Derbe and then to Lystra, where a disciple named Timothy lived, whose mother was Jewish and a believer but whose father was a Greek.
