Asleep In The Light Lyrics

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 so 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 job's done

 "Come away, come away, come away with me my love

 Come away, come away, come away with me my love"
