Asleep In The Light Lyrics - Singles - Keith Green

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 

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 your 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 in the street 

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 

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 

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 from this mess, come away with Me, my love 

Come away, come away, come away with Me my love 

Come away from this mess, come away with Me, my love 

Come away, come away, come away with Me my love 

Come away from this mess, come away with Me, my love
