Awakening (Lyrics) | Amanda Lindsey Cook

This lyric video was made for “Awakening”, a new song by Amanda Lindsey Cook. You've got to watch and listen to this one all the way through. It has an incredible ending! The lyrics describe a person who “is stuck inside a house” in which they “locked the doors and closed the shutters”. Literally and figuratively, this is the way we sometimes close ourselves from everyone around us … friends, family, society and even the Lord. Our isolation comes from many sources such as fear, depression, abuse, disability, bad health, divorce, difficult relationships, loneliness, and the death of a loved-one. Yes, even I admit that there have been times that “sadness was my only comfort”. Heed this; even Jesus said: “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). Our troubles are not a sign that we do not know Jesus, or that He does not care, rather, that we need to keep our eyes focused on Him as our Savior. In this light, the lyrics go on to describe awakening, resurrection, redemption, new beginnings and singing as we focus on the One who has overcome all; Jesus!

"Awakening"
Amanda Lindsey Cook

Stuck inside a house I built
Locked the doors and closed the shutters
With no strength left to cry for help
I hid in bed under the covers

Stuck inside a shade of blue
Sadness was my only comfort
I didn't know that only You
Could fill my world with all the colors

This is my awakening
That while my heart was fast asleep
You were resurrecting me

I thought that I would never breathe
I thought the pain would never leave
But You're redeeming everything

Now there's a dawn at every turn
You speak to me in new beginnings
A ray of sun to heal the hurt
The music stops but You're still singing

This is my awakening
That while my heart was fast asleep
You were resurrecting me

I thought that I would never breathe
I thought the pain would never leave
But You're redeeming everything
Everything, everything

{at 3:04 ... Interlude ... the
presentation of "In Jesus Is" was
created by Aspire Christian Music

words are not a part of the
author's lyrics}

This is my awakening
I'm never going back to sleep
How could I after what I've seen

This is my awakening
There's color now in everything
Color now in everything

This is my awakening
I'm never going back to sleep
How could I after what I've seen

This is my awakening
There's color now in everything
Color now in everything
