Wide Awake

I had a dream that I was walking 

Middle a nowhere on my own 

I didn’t care where I was goin’ 

I never knew a place called home 

Out in the desert I was waiting 

I’d never wandered here before 

There in the silence I heard you say it 

Went from a whisper to a roar 

You said rise up, You said rise up 

I didn’t know I was sleeping 

And I didn’t know I was lost 

You put the skeleton key in 

And opened the door to my heart 

I’m wide awake 

I’m wide awake 

You overwhelmed me like an ocean 

You took my hand just like a child 

There’s not one thing I did to earn it 

But you gave me back my life 

When You said rise up, You said rise up 

Wake up all you sleepers 

Walk in freedom 

Feel it in your bones 

Wake up all you sleepers 

Walk in freedom 

Let him lead us home
