Verse 1: Some were laughing telling stories Others waited silently And from the window where I watched them Such a peace came over me
As the 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
Verse 2: 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 as the darkness fell suddenly I knew
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 And I believe
I was there I have seen I was there I have seen And I believe
