Words by Bob Hartman 
Based on Romans 13:11, Isaiah 60:1

Whoa, sleeping the night away 
Darkness enclosing the world so desperate for day 
We're under the spell of disunity 
When will this giant awake and stand and be free 
Now the hour has come 
To awaken and redeem the time given to the night 
Curse this darkness and stand in the light 

(Chorus) 
Can you hear the alarm echo down the hall 
The sleeping giant gets a wake-up call 
Awake from your sleep 'cause it's time to stand tall 
The sleeping giant gets a wake-up call 
The sleeping giant gets a wake-up call 

Whoa, been sleeping so long, yeah 
How can we hope to discern the right from the wrong? 
The gauntlet is thrown in the face of denial 
Each time we sleep through an inch we're losing a mile 
We will get this rude awakening to reality 
And arise in unity 


It's been dark for so long night is almost gone 
Always darkest before the dawn 
Sunlight soon appearing, a new day it will bring 
Do you feel it?
