{Verse 1]
G+G C majorC G+G
I thought I'd like to travel across the oceans to enview
E minorEm A minorAm D7D7
There in old Jerusalem Mount Calvary and Jesus' tomb,
G+G C majorC G+G
And I'd like to see that noble stone that sealed His grave with care,
E minorEm A minorAm D7D7 G+G
But I don't have to see the tomb to know that He's not there!
Chorus:
E minorEm C majorC G+G
He's not there, the tomb is empty! I know that He's not there,
A minorAm D7D7
For I can feel His presence moving in the air.
G+G C majorC G+G
I spoke with Him this morning when I knelt in prayer,
E minorEm A minorAm D7D7 G+G
And I don't have to see the tomb to know that He's not there.
Verse 2:
G+G C majorC G+G
I look upon great mountains, green valleys, fields, and streams;
E minorEm A minorAm D7D7
Behold God's glorious handiwork in the oceans and the seas.
G+G C majorC G+G
And when He sends forth that ol' rainbow with all its beauty rare,
E minorEm A minorAm D7D7 G+G
I don't have to see the tomb to know that He's not there!
Verse 3:
G+G C majorC G+G
Although I cannot see the wind blowing softly through the trees,
E minorEm A minorAm D7D7
Or see the cool evening air, I can feel the gentle breeze.
G+G C majorC G+G
With His beauty all around me, I know that He's been here,
E minorEm A minorAm D7D7 G+G
And I don't have to see the tomb to know that He's not there!
