[Verse 1]
Ab Db
I am Joseph Smith, a humble prophet of the Lord
Eb Ab
I’ve been foreordained from the foundation of the World
Fm Eb Ab Db
To bring unto all man, the message of His Plan

And bless the lives of those who call his name
Am F
Still, they come, to take me away
G Em
For only declaring, what I know to be true
F G C C/G Am
My time, has not come, the work is not yet done
F G
For my testimony, I must share with you
[Chorus]
C F
He Lives, for I have seen the Son of God
G F/C C
He Lives, and for us Salvation brought
Am Em F C
He healed the sick, raised the dead, he suffered for our sins
Dm C F G C
Now, I've been called to stand, as a witness that... He Lives!
[Verse 2]
Ab Db
As a younger boy I knelt, and witnessed heavens love
Eb Ab
As the Father and Son came down from their thrones above
Fm Eb Ab Db
The words that they did share, I carry everywhere
Eb
And testify to those who have not heard
Am F
Mob's may rage, army's may combine
G Em
But the Standard of Truth will still echo in my mind
F G C C/G Am
The gospel's here to stay, though soon I'll go away

I'll share with you the greatest truth I know
[Chorus]

He Lives, for I have seen the Son of God

He Lives, and for us Salvation brought

[Verse 3]
Ab Db
I saw the cruel men come, take Joseph away
Eb Ab
I fell upon my knees, and prayed that he might stay
Fm Eb Ab Db
Then all at once he turned, my final lesson learned
Eb
He comforted our souls with these few words
Am F
"Like a lamb to the slaughter, calm as the summers morn"
G Em
He testified, that to this end, he too, was born
F G C C/G Am
Then before they rode away, holding Emma he did say
F G
"I love the Lord, please go and share, this message that"...
[Chorus]
C F
He Lives, for I have seen the Son of God

He Lives, and for us Salvation brought

Dm C F G C
Now, I will go and seal, my witness that... He Lives!
[Chorus]

He Lives, for I have seen the Son of God
G F/C C
He Lives, and for us Salvation brought
Am Em F C
He healed the sick, raised the dead, he suffered for our sins
Dm C F G C
Now, I will go and seal, my witness that... He Lives!
