lyrics

I awake,
And open my well-rested eyes and praise
God on high,
Stare at the ceiling and breathe out a sigh.

I am not afraid,
The nightmares go away.
I see your reality is better than my dreams.
It’s a new day,
It’s time for a change.
Throw up the covers and sheets,
Get up and get on my feet,
Get down and then I sing.
I’m awake.

Far away
From all my guilt and shame and past mistakes,
Morning skies
Bring new mercies flowing from the Blood of Christ-
The greatest sacrifice.

Time to forgive, time to forget,
Time to let go of all regrets.
The past is past, that cannot change,
But by His love and truth and grace
We are saved, the debt is paid;
You can rest knowing you’re safe,
And you can once again awake
Without the worry or the pain.
There’s no taking back last night,
What’s done is done, it’s black and white.
Redemption’s only found in Christ
Who fell asleep, but like the light
Of the rising sun,
Rose again, the only Son.
So you can get up out of bed,
And dance like you’re the walking dead.
