https://genius.com/Jamaal-wagner-i-felt-his-wounds-lyrics "I Felt His Wounds" is a melancholic, soul-drenched testimony song built around a quiet, direct encounter with the risen Christ. It opens in stillness, a figure appearing at the edge of an ordinary evening, extending an invitation rather than a demand. What follows isn't distant theology but something physically felt — scars offered up, touched, undeniable. The song frames faith not as blind belief but as firsthand witness, a moment so real it reframes doubt into certainty without erasing the weight of what was suffered to get there. The second verse turns outward, transforming personal encounter into a calling: to carry the story forward, to speak into both darkness and light. The bridge lifts into resurrection, love rising again after betrayal, framing survival and return as the ultimate proof. By the outro, gratitude and commission intertwine — a quiet thank-you fading into a lasting charge to testify. Over warm, mournful male vocals, the song lands less as a hymn of celebration and more as a hushed, resolute vow to tell the world that he lives.
Lyrics
[Verse 1] In the quiet of the evening, as the world was still, He came to me, a shadow on the windowsill. With eyes of endless kindness and a voice that calmed the sea, He said, "Little brother, come walk with me." [Pre-Chorus] He showed me his hands, wrists, feet, and side, Marks of a love that could not be denied. I felt the scars, the pain he bore, And in that moment, I knew for sure. [Chorus] I am no doubting Thomas, my faith never swayed, Yet what I saw, what I touched, took my breath away. He said, "Thank you, little brother, I know it's hard to see, But feel these wounds and know I live, go tell the world for me." [Verse 2] Horrified by the cruelty, the world’s darkest night, He wrapped me in his arms, and everything felt right. "Be my voice," he whispered, "in the shadows and the light, Speak of my journey, of my endless fight." [Pre-Chorus] Though the world chose to scar and betray, Love rose again on the third day. With a heart full of courage and a soul set free, He lives within, this I decree. [Chorus] I am no doubting Thomas, my faith never swayed, Yet what I saw, what I touched, took my breath away. He said, "Thank you, little brother, I know it's hard to see, But feel these wounds and know I live, go tell the world for me." [Bridge] In the silence of the moment, the truth was clear, His spirit eternal, always near. So I'll shout from the mountains, to every land and shore, That he lives, forevermore. [Outro] So here I stand, with faith renewed, A witness to his promise, his love accrued. "Thank you, little brother," his words fade away, But his spirit lives, in my heart to stay. Tell the world, tell them he lives today. Tell the world, tell them he lives today.
