You Are Not Sleeping Anymore
I used to tell you stories and you'd be upset
I used to tell you secrets you could never forget
You pretended not to know me, said we'd never met
But we know better now don't we?
Your eyes have seen us coming with our sickles and swords.
Your ears have heard our drumming as we trickle towards
Our destination bringing just rewards
To every nation, our mercy is poured
This is the Lord speaking
And I know that you're not sleeping anymore
Arise from your destitution. Walk in the light
Prepare to make restitution as all Heaven delights
Now leave all your institutions; defending their night
From the revolution, the coming of light
This is the Lord speaking
And I know that you're not sleeping anymore
Hey, when the Lord's speaking
You better listen loud and clear
All you Earth sleepers
The time is getting nearer
Now you know the way we're moving, bringing everyone here
And you know the day ensuing draws everyone near
To Love and to be renewing the life we hold so dear
At last undoing every last fear
This is the Lord speaking
And I know that you're not sleeping anymore
This is the Lord speaking, Listen loud and clear
You are not sleeping anymore down here
Not anymore
You are not sleeping anymore
I used to tell you secrets you could never forget
You pretended not to know me, said we'd never met
But we know better now don't we?
Your eyes have seen us coming with our sickles and swords.
Your ears have heard our drumming as we trickle towards
Our destination bringing just rewards
To every nation, our mercy is poured
This is the Lord speaking
And I know that you're not sleeping anymore
Arise from your destitution. Walk in the light
Prepare to make restitution as all Heaven delights
Now leave all your institutions; defending their night
From the revolution, the coming of light
This is the Lord speaking
And I know that you're not sleeping anymore
Hey, when the Lord's speaking
You better listen loud and clear
All you Earth sleepers
The time is getting nearer
Now you know the way we're moving, bringing everyone here
And you know the day ensuing draws everyone near
To Love and to be renewing the life we hold so dear
At last undoing every last fear
This is the Lord speaking
And I know that you're not sleeping anymore
This is the Lord speaking, Listen loud and clear
You are not sleeping anymore down here
Not anymore
You are not sleeping anymore
