All Sons and Daughters' song 'Wake Up' is a call to action for believers to rise from spiritual slumber and actively follow Christ. The lyrics acknowledge past pain and shame but emphasize the hope of healing found in God's light. The chorus urges listeners to wake up, stand up, and take up their cross, while the bridge expresses surrender with the line 'Not our will but yours be done.' The song encourages faith, obedience, and a renewed commitment to carrying one's cross daily.

[Verse 1]

We have seen the pain

That shaped our hearts

And in our shame

We're still breathing, 'cause


[Pre-Chorus]

We have seen the hope

of your healing

Rising from our souls

is the feeling

We are drawing close

Your light is shining through

Your light is shining through


[Chorus]

Wake up, wake up, wake up

wake up all you sleepers

Stand up, stand up

Stand up all you dreamers

Hands up, hands up

Hands up all believers

Take up your cross, carry it on


[Verse 2]

All that you reveal

With light in us

Will come to life

And start breathing, 'cause


[Pre-Chorus]

We have seen the hope

of your healing

Rising from our souls

is the feeling

We are drawing close

Your light is shining through

Your light is shining through


[Chorus]

Wake up, wake up, wake up

wake up all you sleepers

Stand up, stand up

Stand up all you dreamers

Hands up, hands up

Hands up all believers

Take up your cross, carry it on


[Bridge] (4x)

Here we stand our hearts are yours, Lord

Not our will but yours be done


[Chorus]

Wake up, wake up, wake up

wake up all you sleepers

Stand up, stand up

Stand up all you dreamers

Hands up, hands up

Hands up all believers

Take up your cross, carry it on


[Bridge] (10x)

Here we stand our hearts are yours, Lord

Not our will but yours be done
