Asleep In The Light Lyrics by Keith Green

Asleep In The Light Lyrics

    Do you see, do you see
    All the people sinking down
    Don't you care, don't you care
    Are you gonna let them drown

    How can you be do numb
    Not to care if they come
    You close your eyes
    And pretend the job's done

    "oh bless me Lord, bless me Lord"
    You know it's all I ever hear
    No one aches, no one hurts
    No one even sheds one tear

    But he cries, he weeps, he bleeds
    And he cares for you needs
    And you just lay back
    And keep soaking it in
    Oh can't you see it's such a sin

    'cause he brings people to you door
    And you turn them away
    As you smile and say
    "god bless you, be at peace"
    And all heaven just weeps
    'cause jesus came to you door
    You've left him out on the streets

    Open up open up
    And give yourself away
    You see the need, you hear the cries
    So how can you delay

    God's calling and you're the one
    But like Jonah you run
    He's told you to speak
    But you keep holding it in
    Of can't you see it's such a sin

    The world is sleeping in the dark
    That the church just can't fight
    'cause it's asleep in the light
    How can you be so dead
    When you've been so well fed
    Jesus rose from the grave
    And you, you can't even get out of bed

    Oh, Jesus rose from the dead
    Come on get out of your bed

    How can you be so numb
    Not to care if they come
    You close your eyes
    And pretend the job's done
    You close your eyes
    And pretend the job's done

    Don't close your eyes
    Don't pretend the jobs done
    "Come away, come away, come away with me my love
    Come away, come away, come away with me my love"
