He's Alive
He's Alive
The 1 _________ and doors were barred The love was 27 _________ out from him
And all the windows 2 _________ down Like sunlight from the skies
I spent the night in sleeplessness Guilt in my 28 _________
And 3 _________ at every sound Disappeared in sweet 29 _________
Half in hopeless 4 _________ And every fear I'd ever had
And half in fear the day Just melted into 30 _________
Would find the 5 _________ breakin' through He's alive, yes he's alive
To drag us all away Yes, he's alive and I'm 31 _________
And just before the 6 _________ Heaven's gates are open wide
I heard something at the wall He's alive (he's alive), yes he's alive (he's alive)
The gate began to 7 _________ Oh, he's alive and I'm forgiven
And a voice began to call Heaven's 32 _________ are open wide
I hurried to the window He's alive, he's alive
Looked down into the street Hallelujah, he's alive
Expecting swords and 8 _________ He's alive and I'm forgiven
And the sound of soldiers' feet Heaven's gates are open wide
But there was no one there but Mary He's alive (he's alive), he's alive (he's alive)
So I went down to let her in He's alive
John stood there 9 _________ me I believe it, he's alive
As she told me where she'd been Sweet Jesus
She said they've moved him in the night
And none of us knows where
The stone's been 10 _________ away
And now his body isn't there
So we both ran towards the 11 _________
Then John ran on ahead
We found the stone and empty 12 _________
Just the way that Mary said
But the 13 _________ sheet, they wrapped him in
Was just an empty 14 _________
And how or where they'd taken him
Was more than I could tell
Oh, something 15 _________ had happened there
Just what I did not know
John believed a 16 _________
But I just turned to go
Circumstance and 17 _________
Couldn't lift me very high
'Cause I'd seen them 18 _________ him
Then I saw him die
Back inside the house again
The 19 _________ and anguish came
Everything I'd promised him
Just added to my 20 _________
When at last it came to choices
I denied I knew his name
And even if he was 21 _________
It wouldn't be the same
But 22 _________ the air was filled
With a strange and sweet 23 _________
Light that came from everywhere
Drove 24 _________ from the room
And Jesus stood before me
With his arms held open wide
And I fell down on my 25 _________
And I just clung to him and cried
Then he 26 _________ me to my feet
And as I looked into his eyes
He’s Alive
The 1 gates and doors were barred The love was 27 shining out from him
And all the windows 2 fastened down Like sunlight from the skies
I spent the night in sleeplessness Guilt in my 28 confusion
And 3 rose at every sound Disappeared in sweet 29 release
Half in hopeless 4 sorrow And every fear I'd ever had
And half in fear the day Just melted into 30 peace
Would find the 5 soldiers breakin' through He's alive, yes he's alive
To drag us all away Yes, he's alive and I'm 31 forgiven
And just before the 6 sunrise Heaven's gates are open wide
I heard something at the wall He's alive (he's alive), yes he's alive (he's alive)
The gate began to 7 rattle Oh, he's alive and I'm forgiven
And a voice began to call Heaven's 32 gates are open wide
I hurried to the window He's alive, he's alive
Looked down into the street Hallelujah, he's alive
Expecting swords and 8 torches He's alive and I'm forgiven
And the sound of soldiers' feet Heaven's gates are open wide
But there was no one there but Mary He's alive (he's alive), he's alive (he's alive)
So I went down to let her in He's alive
John stood there 9 beside me I believe it, he's alive
As she told me where she'd been Sweet Jesus
She said they've moved him in the night
And none of us knows where
The stone's been 10 rolled away
And now his body isn't there
So we both ran towards the 11 garden
Then John ran on ahead
We found the stone and empty 12 tomb
Just the way that Mary said
But the 13 winding sheet, they wrapped him in
Was just an empty 14 shell
And how or where they'd taken him
Was more than I could tell
Oh, something 15 strange had happened there
Just what I did not know
John believed a 16 miracle
But I just turned to go
Circumstance and 17 speculation
Couldn't lift me very high
'Cause I'd seen them 18 crucify him
Then I saw him die
Back inside the house again
The 19 guilt and anguish came
Everything I'd promised him
Just added to my 20 shame
When at last it came to choices
I denied I knew his name
And even if he was 21 alive
It wouldn't be the same
But 22 suddenly the air was filled
With a strange and sweet 23 perfume
Light that came from everywhere
Drove 24 shadows from the room
And Jesus stood before me
With his arms held open wide
And I fell down on my 25 knees
And I just clung to him and cried
Then he 26 raised me to my feet
And as I looked into his eyes
