| There are some people who say we cannot tell
|
| Whether we are saved or whether all is well
|
| They say we only can hope and trust that it is so
|
| Well, I was there when it happened and so I guess I ought to know
|
| Yes, I know when Jesus saved me, (saved my soul)
|
| The very moment He forgave me, (made me whole)
|
| He took away my heavy burdens
|
| Lord, He gave me peace within, (peace within)
|
| Satan can’t make me doubt it, (I won’t doubt it)
|
| It’s real and I’m going to shout it, (I'm going to shout it)
|
| I was there when it happened
|
| And so I guess I ought to know
|
| I don’t care who tells me salvation is not real
|
| Though the world may argue, that we cannot feel
|
| The heavy burden’s lifted and the vile sins go
|
| I was there when it happened and so I guess I ought to know
|
| Yes, I know when Jesus saved me, (saved my soul)
|
| The very moment He forgave me, (made me whole)
|
| He took away my heavy burdens
|
| Lord, He gave me peace within, (peace within)
|
| Satan can’t make me doubt it, (I won’t doubt it)
|
| It’s real and I’m going to shout it, (I'm going to shout it)
|
| I was there when it happened
|
| And so I guess I ought to know |
