	Story Behind the Song Ever imagine what it must have been like at the tomb the day the Savior rose from the grave. Pilate sent centurions to guard the tomb and keep watch lest there be any who would steal the body of Jesus and enlarge the "myth" of His resurrection. Admittedly this song takes some license with one of the centurions in imagination, but most notable is the power the risen Savior has on lives once He rose from the grave. After witnessing miracles and hearing the words of the Lord, what moved the centurion to decision was the witness of the resurrection. Let’s summarize the spirit of the song in two words — just imagine. Lyrics Verse 1 Well Pilate here had sent me To watch this just filled tomb Inside was some itinerant preacher Who had meant some fateful doom They said His name was Jesus A carpenter by trade I’d heard Him preach one time in Nazareth Three years ago today There He said He was the Son of God The crowds began to roar Chorus On that day Hearts were mended The captives freed On that day I could not believe Verse 2 Well it was early in the morning About a half-past-four Two women had just arrived Dressed up like those that mourn Then suddenly it happened Much to my surprise The ground it shook The lightning flashed The stone was rolled away Chorus On that day Hearts were mended The captives freed On that day I came to believe Verse 3 Now I love to sing the story Of the man who died for me How he left His home in wondrous glory For the cross on Calvary I won’t forget what happened My life was changed that day The power of His resurrection Can change your life today You can know Him as the Son of God In your heart believe On this day In your heart believe
