There are some people who say we cannot tellWhether we are saved or whether all is wellThey say we only can hope and trust that it is soWell, I was there when it happened and so I guess I ought to know

 

Yes, I know when Jesus saved me (saved my soul)The very moment He forgave me (made me whole)He took away my heavy burdensLord, He gave me peace within (peace within)

 

Satan can’t make me doubt it (I won’t doubt it)It’s real and I’m gonna shout it (I’m gonna shout it)I was there when it happenedAnd so I guess I ought to know

 

I don’t care who tells me salvation is not realThough the world may argue, that we cannot feelThe heavy burden’s lifted and the vile sins goI was there when it happened and so I guess I ought to know

 

Yes, I know when Jesus saved me (saved my soul)The very moment He forgave me (made me whole)He took away my heavy burdensLord, He gave me peace within (peace within)

 

Satan can’t make me doubt it (I won’t doubt it)It’s real and I’m gonna shout it (I’m gonna shout it)I was there when it happenedAnd so I guess I ought to know
