There are some ^Epeople,^A who say we cannot ^Etell, Whether we are ^B7saved or, whether all is ^Ewell; ^A ^E n.c E E7 A They say we only can hope and, trust that it is so, But I was there when it ^B7happened and I guess I ought to ^Eknow. ^A ^E

Chorus

Yes, I know when Jesus ^B7saved me (yes, He saved my soul), The very moment He ^Eforgave me (yes, He made me whole); He took away my heavy ^F#7burden (yes, He took my sin and), And He gave me peace ^B7within (gave me peace within). Satan can't make me ^Edoubt it (he can't make me doubt it), ^E7It's real and I'm gonna ^Ashout it (I'm gonna shout it); 'Cause I was there when it^B7 happened (oh, my Lord), and I guess I ought to ^Eknow (yes, ^AI ought t^Eo know).

Now, I don't care who ^Etells me, ^Asalvation is not ^Ereal, Though the world may ^B7argue, that we cannot ^Efeel; ^A ^E n.c E E7 A The heavy burdens lifted and the vile sins go, But I was there when it ^B7happened and I guess I ought to ^Eknow. ^A ^E
