CHORUS
C D
Awake... Awake...
F G
I will awake the dawn

I will give thanks to you

To the nations, sing Your song... Awake...

VERSE 1
F
My soul’s in the midst of the lions
G C
And down with the fiery beasts
F
They with their teeth like spears and arrows
G C
Are coming after me

VERSE 2
F
Your love is great to the heavens
G C
Your faithfulness to the clouds
F
My heart is steadfast for my God
G C
Though my soul was buried down

BRIDGE
F
Send mercy to me, O God!
C
In the shadow of Your wings

F
Storms of destruction pass me by
C G
Still Your melody I’ll sing...

CHORUS
Awake... Awake...
I will awake the dawn
I will give thanks to you
To the nations, sing Your song... Awake...

VERSE 1
My soul’s in the midst of the lions
And down with the fiery beasts
They with their teeth like spears and arrows
Are coming after me

VERSE 2
Your love is great to the heavens
Your faithfulness to the clouds
My heart is steadfast for my God
Though my soul was buried down

BRIDGE
Send mercy to me, O God!
In the shadow of Your wings

Storms of destruction pass me by
Still Your melody I’ll sing..
