I’ve Seen Too Much
[Verse 1]
I know it sounds crazy
But I know what I saw
When the sun came up on the brightest day
From the darkest night of all
[Verse 2]
I saw the Man die
They laid Him in the tomb
And I know ‘cause I saw it with my own two eyes
When He stepped into the room
[Chorus 1]
I've seen too much, too much to deny
I've seen too much, too much to say goodbye
[Verse 3]
So we scattered to the four winds
To tell them what we know
But I get so tired and the doubt creeps in
And the doubt won't let me go
[Bridge 1]
And it's all I can do to get up in the morning
All I can do to stand up in the storm
When all I remember's the passing form
A glimpse of the glory before it was gone
And I get so tired of this ridicule
But I cannot deny what I know to be true
'Cause I've seen too much
What else can I do?
Where else can I go, Lord?
Where else can I go... but to You?
[Verse 4]
I've seen too many faces
All shining like the sun
I've seen too many skies on fire
Like the face of the Holy One
[Verse 5]
I've seen too many eyes wide open
That once were so blind
All burning with the beauty of the same love
The same love that opened mine
[Chorus 2]
And I've seen too much, too much to deny
I've seen too much, too many points of light
I know too much, I saw the scars and touched His skin
That's how it was, and I cannot hold it in
[Bridge 2]
I've seen so much that cannot be explained
And I realize it's a mystery of faith
But my friend was dead and He walked out of the grave
And I knew the world would never be the same
I saw too much, when I looked into the eye
Of the One I love and the One who loves me
And there was nowhere left to hide
[Chorus 3]
I've seen too much, too much to deny
I've seen too much, too much to say goodbye
Too many points of light, too much to say goodbye
