Awake, My Soul
Dan Johnson and Roger Tomhave ©2008

(Verse 1)
I have been dreaming I was awake
Not understanding what it might take
To be here and now, committing all.
I have been sleeping outside the wall.

(Pre-chorus)
There is no wall, it never was.
There is no gate; I dreamed it.
No separation, but what I create.
Awake, my soul, to Spirit.

(Chorus)
Awake, my soul, be still and know
There is no place I need to go
With open eyes I hope to see
The God in all, the God in me.

(Verse 2)
I built a bridge from me to You,
Spanning a wide, deep river
Another dream within a dream
Will I ever be delivered?

(Pre-chorus)
The bridge, illusion, it never was.
There is no span; I dreamed it.
No separation, but what I create.
Awake, my soul, to Spirit

(Chorus)
Awake, my soul, be still and know
There is no place I need to go
With open eyes I hope to see
The God in all, the God in me.
