I Have Seen, I Believe

Some were laughing telling stories

Others waited silently

And from the window where I watched them

Such a peace came over me

As the one who seemed so different

Broke the bread and poured the wine

And I listened as He told them

This would be the final time

And as the hymns of praise began to fill the room

I did not understand but something in me knew

I was there

I have seen

I have looked into the eyes

I could feel His love for me

It left me strong

It left me weak

It left me lost within His mercy

Broken at His feet

I was there

I have seen

And I believe

Some were cheering some were weeping

I stood watching from the crowd

And as the soldiers led Him past me

I confess I cried out loud

Then they nailed His broken body

A crown of thorns upon His head

And He cried out for His Father

My mind went back again

To the hymns of praise that filled the upper room

And as the darkness fell suddenly I knew

I saw the nails

I saw the cross

I saw the holy King of glory, take my sin at any cost

I was there

I have seen

I have looked into the eyes

I could feel His love for me

It left me strong

It left me weak

It left me lost within His mercy

Broken at His feet

I was there

I have seen

And I believe

I was there

I have seen

I was there

I have seen

And I believe
