"Oh Sleeper, Awaken"- new song


I was in big bear last year on a retreat for a college group. I had the opportunity to go on a walk by myself. I'm not a sappy dude, but I looked around and got pretty emotional. I was captivated by creation and praying to God saw my jaw drop. I wrote this song that day. It will be on the new record and I can't wait to record it. Here are the lyrics.....

Oh Sleeper, Awaken

I see skies that you made

I see stars that you take

I see clouds that you break

for me, Revealing Lord

Waterfalls of mercy

Stir the soul within me

And break the heart so lovely

For me, Revealing Lord

I see oceans You part

Reconciled a new start

Your grace is never too far

for me Revealing lord

I see mountains you shake

All for mine and love’s sake

Plains of chances you make

for me Revealing Lord

Beautiful and free, we dwell in your creation

Your glory revealed through earth and sky

The roaring of your thunder, your lighting

Strikes the heart with light

Revealing Lord

Revealing Lord I’ll praise You in Your light

Revealing Lord I’ll praise You in the darkness of the night

Oh sleeper awaken

To the wonders of the earth

Your Father wants to show you

what’s matchless to your beauty and your worth
