Chris Tomlin - Awakening Lyrics






In our hearts, Lord, in this nation
Awakening
Holy Spirit, we desire
Awakening

For You and You alone
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
For the world You love
Your will be done, let Your will be done in me

In Your presence, in Your power
Awakening
For this moment, for this hour
Awakening

For You and You alone
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
For the world You love
Your will be done, let Your will be done in me

For You and You alone
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
For the world You love
Your will be done, let Your will be done in me

Like the rising sun that shines
From the darkness comes a light
I hear Your voice and this is my
Awakening

Like the rising sun that shines
From the darkness comes a light
I hear Your voice and this is my
Awakening

Like the rising sun that shines
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
From the darkness comes a light
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing

Like the rising sun that shines
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
Only You can raise a life
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing

    I was homeless living in a car at Wal-Mart parking lot in Amarillo Texas.  I bought the cd that this song was on.  I ran through the songs pretty quickly but when I can to this one and the piano started playing the Spirit of the Lord spoke to me, ""Matthew, this is our song".  I wept and wept and wept.  I was homeless for 4 months going through a divorce that I did not want but in the end I wouldn't trade it for the surpassing intimate knowledge of Jesus.  He is the wildest lover I have ever known....

    M.... M....

  47. s.... ....

    Psalm 57:7-11
    King James Version
    7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.

    8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

    9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.

    10 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.

    11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.

  48. M.... ....

    In my church areas, the word about awakening is coming alive. 11:11 is a neat number and what God has been talking about is that 11:11 is a time for new beginnings. To ARISE! I was looking at the Calendar for winter solstice, and it said that it will happen on December 21st at 11:11. Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!!

  49. n.... h....

    amazing thank u for this posting this love it

  50. c.... ....

    awesome! run the race hard!

  51. H.... A....

    This truly awakened me :)
    I am getting baptized tomorrow and i am so excited and happy that i can't wait :P
    If I live I will live for the Lord and if I die I will die for the Lord, so whatever I do live or die, I belong to the Lord...

  52. x.... k....

    Chris Tomlin is a truley gifted musician

    x.... k....

    he is the absolute best.....

  53. A.... V....

    There is clearly one major theme recurring throughout religion, art and music: the hero's journey back home; the human quest to take back what's been stolen from us by our mind (The Thief, Mr Magpie, Mephistopheles, etc). The Bible, The Odyssey, The Wizard of Oz, Don Quixote, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Arcade Fire all talk about it. I strongly recommend to read the "Truth Contest - The Present". Just google it and please keep an open mind.

  54. a.... ....

    Amen to that- the point I was making is that the darkness is not an equal opposite to the light- the Light of God indeed Jesus says He is the Light - existed before darkness.The darkness within man is dispelled by the light of Christ but is no threat to it nor is it equal in it strength.

  55. G.... D....

    Ephesians 5:8-9 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth)

    2 Corinthians 4:6-7 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.

  56. G.... D....

    Genesis 1:1-5 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
    And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning —the first day.

  57. a.... ....

    Can you quote me a Scripture to back up your thinking- there was light befor God created darkness- we must be careful that our earthly perception of opposites doesnt marr our doctrine- darkness is not just the opposite of light or the absence of it. The light of God is eternal is existence- darkness was created as part of our creation.Light did not come from darkness- the Light of the World stands seperate but dispels darkness in its Truth in Jesus Christ. Darkness is not a credible opponent.

  58. J.... N....

    where sin abounds, grace abounds more... hence light comes from the darkness.

  59. A.... E....

    We sang this at Watermarks Camp 2012!!! I love this song!!

  60. B.... H....

    I love this song, I thank God that he is doing a new thing in His Body with the Season of Spring.

  61. T.... ....

    In my youth Praise Band we are singing this song. we only learned it in about 30 minutes. It is a very powerful song.

  62. G.... D....

    Thanks for the compliment. All I did was google search for background loops and downloaded them. Some are free and some you have to pay for.

  63. M.... R....

    just wondering how do you get the background graphics, amazing song by the way,
    god bless

  64. j.... l....

    camp 2011 <3

  65. B.... T....

    King David is pleased with Chris Tomlin.

  66. M.... T....

    Actually, I believe it's in E flat (Eb)

  67. A.... K....

    When I went to palmer homes in columbus mississippi.. we stopped at a hotel and Sunday we went to a church place.. and we saw chris tomlin... he is truely amazing

  68. J.... H....

    At church we sang this and it was truly beautiful, hearing all of the voices of people who've been through troubles...asking the Lord to be in their hearts. I cried.

  69. A.... F....

    i love this song!!!!!

  70. a.... ....

    thank you for that.

  71. H.... ....

    Also, I'm just guessing here but I'm hearing the word awakening used in a similar context to "revival", even by my own minister.

  72. H.... ....

    I think it is a reference to 2 Cor. 4:6, which contains the phrase "Let the light shine out of the darkness". The words are just rearranged to fit the song better, but the meaning remains.

  73. J.... C....

    It's in Eb Major boss man!

  74. a.... ....

    Strange line- from the darkness comes a light? I dont think so- sometimes the words in songs we have to be so careful about- whilst the Bible does say awake my soul and sing the concept of awakening is a new age one and must be treated with caution we are not using the Biblical phrase to invoke a new age practice.

  75. R.... R....

    Its definitely in Eb, not D :) And the Hillsong version is in E. Just a heads up :)

    or you can play in D with capo on 1.

  76. P.... T....

    So spiritual...and calming...love this Love God...

  77. J.... ....

    This intro sounds like Jars of Clay "The Shelter"

  78. S.... J....

    Agreed!

  79. m.... ....

    @MsBabyColor Eb

  80. m.... ....

    @mgaudet111 Yep. D.

  81. E.... S....

    @Omgitsmaciee Oh you were?? Thats awesome :) haha and yah ik i loved it that was my first year but it was a lot of fun :]

  82. E.... ....

    @silvershadowalpha89 From a musical perspective, you don't like a composition just because you agree with its message. There are plenty of songs with lyrics and meaning that I agree with but it doesn't mean I actually like the song itself.
    So no, you shouldn't.

  83. S.... M....

    i love this song its my theme song for my youth group i feel like im awaking :)

  84. m.... s....

    @SEXYbeast734 you were there tooo ? so was I ; it was amazing *:]

  85. E.... S....

    I cried every time i sang this song it touched me so much and so did the kalahari retreat(': (btw im a girl , sorri bout the username i was given this account)

  86. m.... s....

    I went to a kalahari retreat & this song was sung and after that weekend i got saved & meant it & im letting god control my life <3

  87. F.... ....

    I feel like I am in the heaven ;-)

  88. A.... B....

    BEST SONG EVER!

  89. A.... ....

    This God that loves has awakened the spirit of those that hear and obey His voice. Not because of what we have done or achieved, else we boast. But this God chose to reveal Himself to humanity through His Son, Jesus. Rather than a throne, a manger. Instead of angelic hosts, lowly shepherds. And instead of a majestic robe, frail humanity. From one who yearns to share His world. Surely...this is love.

  90. M.... L....

    I -3 Jesus
    Awake my soul :)

  91. T.... ....

    @mgaudet111 I have music in D, but this recording is in Eb

  92. A.... B....

    I love this song... the first time i heard thissong is the youth group i go 2

  93. w.... ....

    This song is just wonderful! I first heard it used at a retreat i was at a few years ago. Chris Tomlin is the best!

  94. L.... ....

    Lord please awaken this country to your values and holiness

  95. D.... ....

    Goodness his music is so beautiful ! Thank you God for your blessings. I love you God forever, for eternity.

  96. J.... F....

    I have Awaken My Soul tattooed on my chest. This song's meaning means everything to me. Praise God.

  97. p.... ....

    this song touches my heart in soooo many ways.... i can only hope and pray that an explosive revival of love for Christ can occur in this country! TEARS are brought to my eyes as I listen to this song... it is ONLY by the blood of Christ that the souls in our nation can be awakened!! may HIS will be done in my life and in all the lives of those who love Him <3

  98. M.... B....
