Wake Up Oh Sleeper!...
I wanted you guys to "see" this song instead of just hear it.
New favorite band...Needtobreathe.
This song makes me think of this scripture:
Eph. 5: 13-14
But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—
and everything that is illuminated becomes a light.
This is why it is said:
“Wake up, sleeper,
rise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”
rise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”
I also REALLY love hearing the crowd sing and
especially love the bell sound toward the end.
(please pause the blog music at the bottom of the page to hear video.)
Slumber: Needtobreathe
Days they force you back under those covers
Lazy mornings they multiply
Glory's waiting outside your window
Wake on up from your slumber
Baby open up your eyes.
Tongues are violent personal and focused
Tough to be with your steady mind
Hearts are stronger and are broken
Wake on up from your slumber
Baby open up your eyes
All these victims stand in line for
Crumbs that fall from the table
Just enough to get by
All the while your invitation
Wake on up from your slumber
Baby open up your eyes
Wake on up from your slumber
Baby open up your eyes
Take from vandals all you want now
Please don't trade it in for a life
Place your feeble with the fable
Wake on up from your slumber
Baby open up your eyes
Wake on up from your slumber
Baby open up your eyes
Oh sing like we used to
Dance when you want to
Taste for the breakthrough open wide.
Oh come on sing like we used to
And dance like you want to
Come on now open up your eyes
And sing like we used to
And dance like we want to
Come on now open up your eyes

Fun performance, esp at 3:04.
I thought your Bible verse tags were such a good idea. I've got several graduation gifts to do, too, hmmm....
