Music Monday: "Awake My Soul"

Back in December, I pledged to begin an idea by sharing a song each Monday. I am sorry I fell down on this promise. So, I attempt it again!

In my previous post, I talked about Wilderness Trek. The theme for Trek this year is "Created." The theme kept reminding me that we are created to serve, love, and meet our creator. And each time we get closer to our Creator, our souls awaken from a slumber we did not even realize we were in because we are made to be with him. Being in nature made me feel like I could set everything else aside and grow closer to him. I feel alive. I feel more aware. I feel awake because I am closer to my maker.

Due to my feelings, here is "Awake My Soul" by Mumford & Sons.




LYRICS:
How fickle my heart and how woozy my eyes
I struggle to find any truth in your lies
And now my heart stumbles on things I don't know
This weakness I feel I must finally show

Lend me your hand and we'll conquer them all
But lend me your heart and I'll just let you fall
Lend me your eyes I can change what you see
But your soul you must keep, totally free
Har har, har har, har har, har har

In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die
Where you invest your love, you invest your life
In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die
Where you invest your love, you invest your life

Awake my soul, awake my soul
Awake my soul
You were made to meet your maker
Awake my soul, awake my soul
Awake my soul
You were made to meet your maker
You were made to meet your maker
