Wake up from your reality
Make up your mind
Take up your cross and follow me
Child don’t be draggin’ be laggin’ behind
You’ve wasted all your energy
You’ve wasted your life
Try to save it, you’ll lose it
But not if you choose him
So that you might live

I AM who I say that I am
You are who I called to be free
He is the Lion and Lamb
So wake up, wake up and get free now

It’s paid for
The debt is off your hands
Purchased by blood grateful
It’s your only command
And I’ll commend you for a job well done
The eyes of the Lord search to and fro
For one who will serve him
By his spirit letting him know how much he adores him
So open your eyes
He’s calling you by name
Remove the lies
They’re holding you in chains
There’s hope in a Holy God
By the Lamb that was slain
So open your eyes, open your eyes

Behind the Song:
"A lot of the songs on this album serve as challenges to the lost as well as the found to live as we were meant to live. That is the heart behind “Wake Up.” So many of us slumber when all the while there is a great God who deserves our time and affections”- Jimmy Needham
