Lyrics
Awake Inside
Lyrics By Laryssa Densmore & Russell Densmore
Copyright 2016 Dove Hill
Verse:
I'm doing that daily grind
I'm doing that daily drive
I'm never feeling free
Pressure's all on me
To be that perfect man
Walk that perfect plan
I need His strength inside
Chorus:
Are you awake on the inside?
Can you hear him talkin' to you?
Are you awake on the inside?
He's calling you, He's calling you
Verse:
Thinking about where I've been
Thinking about what I've done
The struggle's every day
His grace is on the way
Takin' it day by day
No matter what may come
He's got me in His arms
Chorus:
Are you awake on the inside?
Can you hear him talkin' to you?
Are you awake on the inside?
He's calling you, He's calling you
Bridge (duet):
Don't ever try to look back
Don't ever try to forget
Don't ever hide your light
You've got to win ---your--- fight
In every day I'll rise
In every day I'll shine
In every thing I do
They'll see His light shine through
Chorus
Are you awake on the inside?
Can you hear him talkin' to you?
Are you awake on the inside?
He's calling you, He's calling you
Are you awake on the inside?
(are you awake now?, he's talkin' to you oh yeah)
Don't you know that He's workin' on you?
(are you awake now?, he's livin' in you oh yeah)
Are you awake on the inside?
(are you awake now?)
He's calling you, He's calling you
Are you awake on the inside?
(are you awake now?, he's talkin' to you oh yeah)
Don't you know that He's workin' on you?
(are you awake now?, he's livin' in you oh yeah)
Are you awake on the inside?
(are you awake now?)
He's calling you, He's calling you
Are you AWAKE?
