Awakening
By: Amanda Lindsey Cook
Verse 1
Bb F Gm
Stuck inside a house I built
Eb F Cm
Locked the doors and closed the shutters
Bb F Gm
With no strength left to cry for help
Eb F Cm
I hid in bed under the covers
Verse 2
Bb F Gm
Stuck inside a shade of blue
Eb F Cm
Sadness was my only comfort
Bb F Gm
I didn’t know that only You
Eb F Cm
Could fill my world with all the colors
Chorus
Bb
This is my awakening
F Eb
That while my heart was fast asleep
F Gm Bb Eb
You were resurrecting me
Bb
I thought that I would never breathe
F Eb
I thought the pain would never leave
F Gm Bb Eb
But You’re redeeming everything
Verse 3
Bb F Gm
Now there’s a dawn at every turn
Eb F Cm
You speak to me in new beginnings
Bb F Gm
A ray of sun to heal the hurt
Eb F Cm
The music stops but You’re still singing
Chorus 1
Chorus 2
Bb
This is my awakening
Bb
I’m never going back to sleep
Gm Eb
How could I after what I’ve seen
Bb/F
This is my awakening
Eb/G
There’s color now in everything
Bb/D Eb Bb
Color now in everything
