From the time I spoke Your name

NS168
1
From the time I spoke Your name,
Lord, my life's not been the same
Since I called on the only One who'd save me.
When forsaken, in despair—
Who'd have thought that You'd be there!
Now I've found out, Jesus, You're alive!
DFrom 
the time I 
Gspoke 
Your 
Dname, 
Lord, my 
Glife's 
not been the 
Dsame 
Since I called on the 
Bmon

Em7save 
me. 
A7When

Dthere! 
Now I've found out, 
A7Je
sus, You're a
Dlive! 
 
Now my eyes begin to see
I'm living as I ought to be,
As this turning, burning God
moves in my heart...
I don't care now how I feel;
I just know that this is real,
And I know, oh Jesus, You're alive!
D7Now 
my 
Geyes 
begin to see 
I'm living 
Das 
I ought to be, 
As this

And I know,

All my friends might think it's square—
Since I touched You, I don't care—
For I've found You're the only life worth living.
Though some mock and criticize,
Lord, they just don't realize
That I've found out, Jesus, You're alive!
All my friends might think it's square—

It's no statue that I call,
Not a picture on the wall,
But a person who lives His life within me.
Wish they'd told me long before,
All You want's an open door
And that really, Jesus, You're alive!
It's no statue that I call,
Not a picture on the wall,
But a person who lives His life within me.
Wish they'd told me long before,
All You want's an open door
And that really, Jesus, You're alive!

An alternate stanza 2 for those of you who have no friends, like me:

Though all around me is despair—

Since I touched You, I don’t care—

For I’ve found You’re the only life worth living.

Though some mock and criticize,

Lord, they just don’t realize

That I’ve found out, Jesus, You’re alive!

O Jesus, live Your life through us today and teach us to submit to You instead of insisting on our own way. Thank You that You saved me and that Your Spirit lives in me. Amen.
