Lyrics
Sleeping Jesus
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
But during that time
Of darkness and doubt
I began to search
For something
Look up and down
But I barely knew
The difference between
The sky and the ground
Sleeping Jesus
Awaken in the man
Send your spirit
Touch him with your hand
He can't feel you
He cannot see the sky
Sleeping Jesus
Awaken in this mind
The veil of tears
Was wearing quite thin
The weight of wasted years
Left no way to win
But I began to
Feel his guidance
When I was deep in my sin
Sleeping Jesus
Awaken in the man
Send your spirit
Touch him with your hand
He can't feel you
He cannot reason why
Sleeping Jesus
He's reaching for the sky
Sleeping Jesus
Awaken in the man
Send your spirit
Touch him with your hand
He can't feel you
He cannot see the sky
Sleeping Jesus
Awaken in this mind
