Awake! Arise!
from death to life, from sleep to strength...look to the Living One!
Awake! Arise!
Gaze upon the dawn with eyes awakened by God’s grace.
Fall before Him, be made wise and finish strong this race.
Awake! Arise!
See the tomb and realize that He is ris’n from the grave.
Cast off sin’s fear and all its lies, behold the One who saves.
Awake! Arise!
Lift your heart, make firm your ties with Christ, the Living One.
Lift your head, behold the prize! In HIM the race is won!
Awake! Arise!
Shake off your slumber…why? Because He lives! Yes, Christ lives!
Arise! Arise! Arise!
In a world that lulls the soul to sleep, we live in the reality of the risen Christ. We are not waiting for victory, we are living in it! The tomb is empty, Christ is risen, and this is no hour for spiritual slumber. There is no room for drifting, no excuse for faint hearts. Now is the time to stand firm, to be strong in Him, to cast off every weight…and to live awake.
Awake! Arise!
Galatians 2:20 “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me…

“Cast off sin’s fear and all its lies, behold the One who saves.”
