| We knew he was dead
|
| It is finished, he said
|
| We had watched as his life ebbed away
|
| Then we all stood around
|
| Till the guards took him down
|
| Joseph begged for his body that day
|
| It was late afternoon
|
| When we got to the tomb
|
| Wrapped his body and sealed up the grave
|
| So I know how you feel
|
| His death was so real
|
| But please listen and hear what I say
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| I tell you he’s alive
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| Our precious Lord alive
|
| And I knew, he really saw me too
|
| As if till now, I’d never lived
|
| All that I’d done before
|
| Won’t matter anymore
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| And I’ll never be the same again
|
| It was his voice she first heard
|
| Those kind gentle words
|
| Asking what was her reason for tears
|
| And I sobbed in despair
|
| My Lord is not there
|
| He said, child! |
| it is I, I am here!
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| I tell you he’s alive
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| Our precious lord alive
|
| And I knew, he really saw me too
|
| As if till now, I’d never lived
|
| All that I’d done before
|
| Won’t matter anymore
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| All that I’d done before
|
| Won’t matter anymore
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus
|
| And I’ll never be the same again
|
| I’ve just seen Jesus! |
