He’s alive (Listen to midi)
Am G Am
1. The gates and doors were barred and all the windows fastened down,
G Am
I spent the night in sleeplessness and rose at every sound.
Dm G Am
Half in hopeless sorrow and half in fear that they
G Am
would find us, soldiers breaking through, to drag us all away.
Am G Am
2. Just before the sunrise, there was something at the wall,
G Am
the gate began to rattle, a voice began to call.
Dm G Am
I hurried to the window, and looked down into the street,
G Am
expecting swords and torches, and the sounds of soldiers feet.
Am G Am
3. There was no one there but Mary, so I went down to let her in,
G Am
John stood there beside me, as she told us where she'd been.
Dm Am
She said: `They've moved Him in the night, none of us knows where.
G Am
the stone's been rolled away, now his body isn't there !
Am G Am
4. We both ran toward the garden, then John ran on ahead,
G Am
we found the stone and the empty tomb, just the way that Mary said.
Dm Am
The linen sheet, they wrapped Him in, was just an empty shell,
G Am
how, or where'd they taken Him, was more than I could tell.
Am G Am
5. Something strange had happened there, but just what I did not know,
G Am
John believed a miracle, but I just turned to go.
Dm G Am
Circumstances, speculation couldn't lift me very high,
- G Am
as I’d seen them crucify Him, and I saw Him die.
Am G Am
6. Back inside the house again, the guilt and anguish came,
G Am
everything I've promised Him just added to my shame.
Dm G Am
When at last it came to choices, I denied I knew His name,
- G Am
even if He was alive, it wouldn't be the same.
Am G Am
7. But suddenly the air was filled with strange and sweet perfume,
G Am
light that came from everywhere drove shadows from the room.
Dm G Am
Jesus stood before me with His arms held open wide,
G Am
and I fell down on my knees and just clung to Him and cried.
Am G Am
8. He raised me to my feet and I looked into His eyes,
G C
love was shining out from Him like sunlight from the skies.
F G Am
Guilt and my confusion disappeared in sweet release,
G A ~ A - C - G - D
and every fear I’d ever had just melted into peace.
Am C G
He is alive, He is alive, He is alive and I'm forgiven,
D
heaven's gates are open wide. (3x)
Am C G - D - Am
He is alive, He is alive, He is ali…..ve.
