Wake Up Sleeping Hearts
A Poem by John D. High
Wake up sleeping hearts
Rub the sleep from your eyes
Throw open the curtains to your soul
Let the light come in
To push out the darkness that’s
Kept the light dim
There’s greatness inside of you that needs
To come out
The world needs what you have to offer
Boldness and freedom from fear
That’s what’s available
In this safe place in God’s arms
Where your troubles melt away
Like wax on the fire
Now the true you
With all your strength exposed
Ready to push through the walls that others can’t see
You take your place in setting others free
