Keith Green Asleep In The Night lyrics

Do you see, do you see
All the people sinking down?
Don't you care, don't you care
Are you gonna let them drown?

How can you be so numb
Not to care if they come?
You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done

"Oh, bless me Lord, bless me Lord"
You know it's all I ever hear
No one aches, no one hurts
No one even sheds one tear

But He cries, He weeps, He bleeds
And He cares for your needs
And you just lay back and keep soaking it in
Oh, can't you see it's such a sin?

'Cause He brings people to you door
And you turn them away as you smile and say
"God bless you, be at peace"
And all heaven just weeps 'cause Jesus came to your door
You've left him out on the streets

Open up, open up
And give yourself away
You see the need, you hear the cries
So how can you delay


God's calling and you're the one
But like Jonah you run
He's told you to speak but you keep holding it in
Oh can't you see it's such a sin?

The world is sleeping in the dark
That the church just can't fight 'cause it's asleep in the light
How can you be so dead when you've been so well fed
Jesus rose from the grave and you, you can't even get out of bed

Oh, Jesus rose from the dead
Come on, get out of your bed

How can you be so numb
Not to care if they come?
You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done

You close your eyes
And pretend the job's done
Don't close your eyes
Don't pretend the jobs done

Come away, come away, come away with me, my love, oh
Come away, from this mess, come away with me, my love
Come away, from this mess, come away with me, my love
Come away, come away oh, come away with me, my love
