He's Not Here - Charlie Daniels

Judas Iscariot, how did you feel

As you watched them take Him away?

And you Simon Peter, what did you think

When you betrayed Him at the break of day?

Did your heart break down inside

From the bitter tears you cried?

Did you think that all was lost

As He hung there on the cross?

Did you think He deceived you

Or did you believe the things

He told you just before He died?

Why’d you run and hide?

John the beloved, where was your heart

As you waited the lonely night through?

Were you afraid now that Jesus was gone

The Romans were coming for you?

Did you cringe in fear and shock

When you heard that fateful knock?

And the shout rang through the room

That He was not in the tomb?

As you ran to the grave

And you entered the cave

And found the stone had been rolled away

What did the angels say?

He’s not here, He is risen

He is not among the dead

He has sealed Jehovah’s covenant

He has crushed the serpent’s head

He has conquered death

Hell and the grave

Now the old debt has been cleared

He’s not here, He’s not here

Brothers and sisters where will you be

When He makes His triumphant return?

He’s calling to you, His salvation is free

Can’t be bought confiscated or earned

Though your sins be scarlet red

Like the Holy Bible says

Come and stand beneath the flow

And be washed as white as snow

Then join in the chorus

Proclaiming the joyous

Praises to the King of Kings

Lift up your voice and sing

He’s not here, He is risen

He is not among the dead

He has sealed Jehovah’s covenant

He has crushed the serpent’s head

He has conquered death

Hell and the grave

Now the old debt has been cleared

He’s not here, He’s not here

He’s not here, He is risen

He is not among the dead

He has sealed Jehovah’s covenant

He has crushed the serpents head

He has conquered death

Hell and the grave

Now the old debt has been cleared

He’s not here, He’s not here

He’s not here, He’s not here
