tuesday tunes - awakening.

today's tuesday tune is just one song. it's called "awakening" by chris tomlin -- from the passion2010 conference. {the whole album is great, though!}

"awakening" has been my theme song as i head to africa in 5 days. i've been playing it on repeat, as i anticipate an awakening -- in my own heart, in my team's heart, in the hearts of the people we will spend time with in gulu.

especially after the attacks in uganda this weekend - i'm singing the line "from the darkness comes a light" louder than ever. for the world He loves.

you can hear the whole song, and the lyrics are below, too.

"awake and sing for joy" (isaiah 26:19)...

In our hearts, Lord, in this nation

Awakening

Holy Spirit, we desire

Awakening

For You and You alone

Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing

For the world You love

Your will be done, let Your will be done in me

In Your presence, in Your power

Awakening

For this moment, for this hour

Awakening

For You and You alone

Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing

For the world You love

Your will be done, let Your will be done in me

Like the rising sun that shines

From the darkness comes a light

I hear Your voice and this is my

Awakening

Like the rising sun that shines

Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing

From the darkness comes a light

Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing

Like the rising sun that shines

Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing

Only You can raise a life

Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
