Awaken
Natalie Grant Lyrics

Sometimes I feel like I'm just existin'
At times, I feel like I am only surviving and not really living.

I'm not really livin'
I do not think I am experiencing everything that life has to offer.

I'm only watchin' the time slip away
I am just a spectator, letting time pass without taking any action.

I've forgotten who I am in You
I have lost my identity and purpose as a result of my disconnection from my faith.

I'm not who I'm meant to be, no
I do not recognize the person I have become and know that I am not fulfilling my potential.

I'm driftin' farther away from my destiny
My life is moving in a direction that is not leading me towards my ultimate fate or destination.

Awaken my heart, awaken my soul
I am asking the divine to rekindle my innermost being.

Awaken Your power and take control
I am asking the divine to use its power to help me steer my life towards a more fulfilling path.

Awaken the passion to live for You, Lord
I am asking the divine to reignite my passion for my faith and to use that passion to better my life.

Awaken me, oh yeah
I am hopeful that the divine will hear my plea and grant me the awakening I am seeking.

My soul is longin', my heart is searchin'
I am yearning for spiritual nourishment and my heart is looking for something greater.

I'm desperate for You to move
I am in a state of desperation and need the divine to guide me in the right direction.

Give me a hunger, pull me closer
I am asking the divine to make me eager for spiritual nourishment and to bring me closer to it.

I'm cryin' out to You
I am making a plea to the divine for help and support.

Open my eyes so I can see
I am asking the divine to allow me to see the world from a new perspective.

Your presence dwelling inside
I am acknowledging the existence of the divine inside me.

Wake me up, 'cause I can't live
I am requesting the divine to wake me up from my current state because I am unable to live like this any longer.

Another minute if I'm not shining your light
If the divine's light is not shining through me, I do not believe I can make it another second.

Awaken the passion in me, oh yeah
I am asking for a divine spark to light up my passion from within.

Lord, awaken me to live my destiny
I am asking for the divine to help me fulfill my destiny.

Lord, awaken me and shine your light through me
I am asking the divine to radiate its light through me to illuminate my path.

To live for You, yeah, yeah, yeah
I am committing to living my life as an expression of my faith.

Wake me up, Lord, yeah
I am requesting the divine to awaken me from my slumber.

Give me your passion, Jesus
I am asking for the strength and drive of the divine to take over me.

I wanna live for you
I am committed to living my life in service of the divine.
