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,
|
But I was there when it happened and 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 gonna shout it (I'm gonna shout it);
|
I was there when it happened and I guess I ought to know
|
|
Now, I don't care who tells me, salvation is not real,
|
Though the world may argue, that we cannot feel;
|
The heavy burdens lifted and the vile sins gone,
|
But I was there when it happened and I guess I ought to know.
