I told you all along, that something would go wrong,
And you would end up looking like a fool.
How could you think that He, a young man of thirty-three,
Would ever bring the world under His rule?
We might as well go home, ‘cause now we’re on our own,
And I am sure He’ll never come again.
As sure as my name’s Thomas, we can’t count on His promise...(pause)
Why are those women shouting? Let them in!
•
(chorus)
He is alive! I tell you, He’s alive! The angels said that Jesus is alive!
The stone was rolled away, so we came without delay;
We must be ready when the Lord arrives.
He is alive, you hear me? He’s alive! And I can feel my soul start to revive!
Now everything’s alright, my future’s looking bright,
And all because our Savior is alive!

I never would expect anyone with self-respect
To fall for all these stories that we hear!
It’s terrible to see these men from Galilee
Exploiting people’s hopelessness and fear.
I’m gonna get them all, or my name isn’t Saul,
And they will get a taste of Caesar’s might!
This church is gonna fail; I’ll throw them all in jail.... (pause)
My God, what is that awesome, blinding light?
•
(chorus)
He is alive! I saw Him! He’s alive! And now I
know His kingdom will survive,
Since He appeared to me, my spirit’s been set free;
Against the cross I will no longer strive.
He is alive! I feel Him! He’s alive! Now I have hope and happiness inside!
Salvation is secure, eternity assured; in Him I will forevermore abide.
•
(chorus)
He is alive! Praise God, He is alive! And He’s the
only hope for all mankind!
We’ve got to tell the world: though sin around us swirl,
There’s victory and joy, and peace of mind!
He’s still alive! Forever, He’s alive!
And we will leave the toil of Earth behind;
We’ll meet Him in the air, and live with Him up there!
So glory to His name, He is alive!
•
Soon we’ll meet Him in the air, and we’ll live with Him up there!
We thank God that He came, and He’s alive!... He’s alive!!!...
