I Have Many People in This City

INTRO (mellow highlife guitar) VERSE 1 Paul came weary into Corinth, Found Aquila and his wife; They were tentmakers like himself, And they shared the work of life. Every Sabbath in the synagogue He was reasoning with all; But when they opposed and slandered, He went next door at God's call. VERSE 2 Crispus, ruler of the synagogue, With his household came to believe; Many Corinthians, hearing, Were baptized and did receive. Then one night the Lord spoke to him In a vision, soft and clear: "Do not be afraid, keep speaking, Do not be silent, I am here." CHORUS I am with you, (I am with you) No one will attack to harm you; I have many people in this city, Many who are Mine. Keep on speaking, (keep on speaking) Do not be silent, do not fear; I have many people in this city, And My word will find them here. VERSE 3 So he stayed a year and six months Teaching the word of God there; Gallio would not judge the matter, And the Lord kept him in His care. Then Apollos, mighty in Scripture, Came to Ephesus to teach; Priscilla and Aquila took him And explained the way in speech. FINAL CHORUS OUTRO Many who are Mine, Many who are Mine.
