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

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 gonna shout it,

I'm gonna 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 gonna shout it,

I'm gonna shout it

I was there when it happened

And so I guess

I ought to know
