Awaken Us

We are questions that beg for the answers

We are poems awaiting the rhyme

We are riddles that long for solution

With Your breath we come alive



We are silenced when searching for reasons

We are weary and broken inside

We are desperate for Your affection

We are darkness You are light



So awaken us, awaken us

Stir in our hearts Your truth

Awaken us, awaken us

That we might live for You

We are ashes, we are dust

Awaken us



Lord You whispered the dawn of creation

And Your love has been on display

You have promised that You would be with us

And we need You here day



Awaken us, awaken us

Stir in our hearts Your truth

Awaken us, awaken us

That we might live for You

We are ashes, we are dust

Awaken us



You will lead us out of the desert

You will hold us when we are weak

We will rise up, we will rise up

To follow our Great King.



Awaken us, awaken us

Stir in our hearts Your truth

Awaken us, awaken us

That we might live for You, oh

Awaken us, awaken us

Stir in our hearts Your truth

Awaken us, awaken us

That we might live for You

We are ashes, we are dust

Awaken us



Awaken us

Awaken us

Awaken us
