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 tombWrapped His body and sealed up the graveSo I know how you feel, His death was so realBut please listen and hear what I say

I've just seen Jesus, I tell you He's aliveI've just seen Jesus, our precious Lord aliveAnd I knew He really saw me tooAs if till now I'd never livedAll that I'd done before won't matter anymoreI've just seen Jesus and I'll never be the same again

It was His voice she first heard, those kind gentle wordsAsking what was her reason for tearsAnd I sobbed in despair, my Lord is not thereHe said, “Child, it is I, I am here”

I've just seen Jesus, I tell you He's aliveI've just seen Jesus, our precious Lord aliveAnd I knew He really saw me tooAs if till now I'd never livedAll that I'd done before won't matter anymoreI've just seen Jesus, I've just seen JesusI've just seen Jesus

All that I'd done before won't matter anymoreI've just seen JesusAnd I'll never be the same againI've just seen Jesus
