The Old Goat’s Coat

by Juanita G. Ellis
Saul helped his older friend undress, And held his own arm out. The old goat draped his coat on Saul, Then quickly turned about. But, why this hate? Oh, why this scorn? For Stephen young and brave? Oh, why the strong dislike of Christ, So newly from the grave?
Did Saul hear, too, as others did The sobs from Stephen’s heart? When as he prayed for that old goat, The heavens split apart?
As Christ stood up, with angels, round, To welcome Stephen there, The old goat left and went his way To only God knows where.
The rocks were spent, the deed was done. His garment clean and dry. For Saul had held the old goat’s coat When gentle Stephen died.
The Stoning of Stephen—See Acts 7:54-60. A young man named Saul held the coats of the men who stoned Stephen. Saul became the great Apostle Paul. He wrote 14 New Testament books!
Reaching for another rock, That old goat threw it straight. The rock fell short and missed its mark, His fist soon raised in hate.
