He said good bye to the angels of heaven

And He came to earth as a common man

He taught us how we could love one another

There was healing in His hands



There were those who believed and followed Him

And there were those who wanted Him dead

They thought the grave would silence Him forever

But they found out instead



chorus

You can close your eyes

You can say it's a lie

You can stick your head in the sand

You can turn away even try to explain

He was just another man

When they nailed Him to the cross by His hands and feet

And the put Him in the ground

Three days later everybody found out that you can't

No you can't keep a good man down!

No you can't keep a good man down!



I hear you say that it all sounds crazy

It's a good story but it can't be true

How coud a man who was dead and buried

Mean a thing to me and you?



Here we are two thousand years later

And still the choice is just the same

You can say that you don't believe it

But it doesn't change a thing



repeat chorus



bridge:

I can take you to the hill

Where they hung Him on a cross

I can take to the empty tomb

I can tell you He's alive

Cause He lives in me

But the rest is up to you!



repeat chorus twice
