Lyrics

I Believe

Some were laughing telling stories, others waited silently
And from the window where I watched them, such a peace came over me
There was 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

Chorus:
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 know I understand, that his promises are true

Chorus:
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

Bridge:
I saw the nails, I saw the cross,
I saw the holy King of glory, take my sin at any cost

Chorus:
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
I was there, I have seen
I was there, I have seen, I believe
