Some people say he was a healer
Who had his moment long ago
Some even say his time is over

But I don’t wanna talk about history
Cause I know who he is to me

He is hope
He is light
He is with me in every moment
He is all that I need
Everything good in me
Some might say that Jesus was
I say Jesus is

He’s not some savior at a distance
He’s not some God so far away

I can tell you I have seen the evidence
Here in the present tense

Bridge
Jesus is alive
Living inside my heart
The reason why I’m alive
Some might say Jesus was
I say Jesus is

Behind the Song:
We face a culture that tries everything possible to make Jesus seem irrelevant. As if He is nothing more than a fairytale or a legend of the past. Those of us who know Christ know He is not just some simple religion, but the living God who not only was, but is and is to come. He lives inside of us and has changed us completely with His love and nothing can change that.
