I Was There When It Happened
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.
Chorus
Yes, I know when Jesus saved me [yes, He saved my soul],
The very moment He forgave me [yes, He made me whole];
He took away my heavy burden [yes, He took my sin and],
And He gave me peace within [gave me peace within].
Satan can't make me doubt it [he can't make me doubt it],
It's real and I'm gonna shout it [I'm gonna shout it];
'Cause I was there when it happened [oh, my Lord],
and I guess I ought to know [yes, 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 go,
But I was there when it happened and I guess I ought to know.
