Awakening
Disciple's 'Awakening' is a rock-infused Christian anthem about personal transformation and spiritual renewal. The lyrics trace a journey from a place of hopelessness and pain to a new life marked by trust and prayer. The singer describes leaving behind self-punishment and embracing grace, which brings a sense of freedom and purpose. The recurring imagery of skies opening and life taking flight conveys a breakthrough from darkness into light. The song emphasizes the role of God's love and grace in this awakening, making it a powerful declaration of faith and hope.
The first words I learned
Born in the absence of hope
Trust wasn�??t something I�??d ever dreamed of
In the nightmare of hate
But I�??m learning to live a place where
Skies open wide (this awakening, my awakening)
Night shines so clear (this awakening, my awakening)
My life�??s taking flight
There�??s a reason I pray
Cause my heart is the bait
To the song that you sing in my life
The bridges are burned
Singed every part of my soul
And the smell of the blistering flame still haunts me
When the smoke washed my eyes
I won�??t be walking in these flames alone
Skies open wide (this awakening, my awakening)
Night shines so clear (this awakening, my awakening)
My life�??s taking flight
There�??s a reason I pray
Cause my heart is the bait
To the song that you sing in my life
My need for pain has slipped away
My need to punish myself has crept away
All since the advent of grace
Why�??s it so hard to replace
My feet are leaving the ground
Gravity is no longer found
Skies open wide (this awakening, my awakening)
Night shines so clear (this awakening, my awakening)
My life�??s taking flight
There�??s a reason I pray
Cause my heart is the bait
To the song that you sing in my life
