Awake O Sleeper - Jeremy Camp

Oh, Abraham would raise his hands

And mourn this very day

For his children left the promise land

In search of their own way

And they kick and scream like wayward sons

And always wanting to sleep

And dream away these evil days

In hopes that God can’t see

Chains upon Your children, Lord

Chains upon Your children

Chains upon Your children, Lord

Chains!

Do you hear the lion roar?

Awake O Sleeper

Stand with me we’ll fight the war

Awake O Sleeper

Your suffering will come again

And never fall away

Unless we trade our many comforts

Like the ones who bled for grace

There will be a day my God will come

And put me in my place

My God I know, You’ll call my name

You will not turn away

Chains upon Your children, Lord

Chains upon Your children

No more chains upon Your children, Lord

Chains!

Do you hear the lion roar?

Awake O Sleeper

Stand with me we’ll fight the war

Awake O Sleeper

Let no man bring me harm

I bear the marks of Jesus

Let no man bring me harm

I bear the marks of the Lord

I said, let no man bring me harm

I bear the marks of Jesus

Let no man bring me harm

I bear the marks of God!

Do you hear the lion roar?

Awake O Sleeper

Stand with me we’ll fight the war

Awake O Sleeper

Do you hear the lion roar?

Awake O Sleeper

Stand with me we’ll fight the war

Awake O Sleeper

Awake, awake

Awake O Sleeper

Awake, awake

Awake O Sleeper
