He's Not There / He Is Here

Zoomer Roberts: vocal & composition
Buddy Winston: guitar
Recorded 18 April 2015

Travel [C] to the Holy Land but He's not [G7] there
Nazareth and Bethlehem but He's not [C] there
But in the Bible He's on ev'ry [F] page
He said I'm with you [C] always,
until the [G7] closing of the [C] age

See where [C] miracles occurred but He's not [G7] there
And the Words of Life were heard but He's not [C] there
He walked upon the sea of Gali-[F]-lee
You won't find Him there [C] now,
but He's a-[G7]-live in you and [C] me

For God [F] gave His only Son
It is [C] finished, it is done
That all believing in Him might be [G7] saved
When His [F] final breath was spent
And the [C] Temple veil was rent
He [D] rose again and triumphed o'er the [G] grave

Walk the [C] Via Dolorosa He's not [G7] there
Cast your eyes upon the cross but He's not [C] there
Behold the empty tomb where He was [F] laid
He said, My peace I [C] give you,
so let your [G7] heart be not a-[C]-fraid

He turned [F] water into wine
He gave [C] eyesight to the blind
He's gone ahead a mansion to pre-[G7]-pare
Let us [F] all love one another
Be a [C] sister, be a brother
And the [D] world will see Him in the love we [G] share

Give the [C] hungry your last dime, He'll be [G7] there
Overlook a beggar's grime, He'll be [C] there
If you the Holy Spirit will re-[F]-ceive
More blessed is the [C] one
who, though not [G7] seeing, yet be-[C]-lieves
