Asleep in the Light by Keith Green
G Am7 C D G
Do you see, do you see, all the people sinking down?
Am7 C D Em
Don't you care, don't you care, are you gonna let them drown?
D G Am7 C
How can you be so numb not to care if they come?
Am7-G Em-D G Am7-C-D
You close your eyes and pretend the job's done.
G Am7 C D G
"Oh bless me Lord, bless me Lord" you know it's all I ever hear
Am7 C D Em
No one aches, no one hurts, no one even sheds one tear.
D G Am7 C
But He cries, He weeps, He bleeds, and He cares for your needs
Am7 G Em D G C G Am7 G
And you just lay back and keep soaking it in. Oh can't you see it's such sin
C G D C
Cause He brings people to your door and you turn them away
Em D G Am7 C G
As you smile and say "God bless you, be at peace", And all heaven just weeps.
C G Am7 C G Am7-C-D
Cause Jesus came to your door, you've left Him out on the streets.
G Am7 C D G Am7 C
Open up,open up, and give yourself away, You see the need, you hear the cries
D Em D G Am7 C
So how can you delay? God's calling, you're the one, but like Jonah you run
Am7 G D G C G Am7 G
He's told you to speak but you keep holding it in;
C G Am7 G C
Oh can't you see it's such sin?
C A D Bm
The world is sleeping in the dark that the church just can't fight
Em D G
Cause it's asleep in the light, how can you be so dead,
Am7 C
when you've been so well fed?
C G Am7 C G C
Jesus rose from the grave and you, you can't even get out of bed
G Am7 G Am7-G C A-A7-A-A7-D-Dsus-D
Oh, Jesus rose from the dead, Come on, get out of your bed
Em D G Am7 C
How can you be so numb not to care if they come?
G Am7 G Em D G -Am7-G
You close your eyes and pretend the job's done (x3) (End - Am7 C D)
G Am7 C D G
Come away, come away, come away with me my love (x4)
