The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

He said goodbye to the angels of heaven

And He came to earth as a common man

He taught us how we could love one another

There was healing in His hands

There were those who believed and followed Him

And there were those who wanted Him dead

They thought the grave would silence Him forever

But they found out instead

CHORUS:

you can close your eyes

You can say it's a lie

you can stick your head in the sand

You can turn away and try to explain

He was just another man

When they nailed Him to the cross

by His hands and His feet

and they put Him in the ground

Three days later everybody found out that ya can't

No you can't keep a good man down, no

No you can't keep a good man down

I hear you say that it all sound crazy

It's a good story but it can't be true

how could a man who was dead and buried

Mean a thing to you and me

Here we are a thousand years later

And still the choice is just the same

You can say ya don't believe it

But it doesn't change a thing

CHORUS

BRIDGE:

I can take you to the hill

where they hung Him on a cross

I can take you to the empty tomb

I can tell you He's alive 'cause He lives in me

But the rest is up to you

CHORUS(x2)
