"Awake!"

This spark of life outshines the night,
It hums of calm in the fading light.
The hearts we miss are never far,
We’ll find them again where bright dreams are.

The tears still fall, it’s hard to see,
The chair you loved sits next to me.
Yet deep inside I feel God’s hand,
Reminding me He’ll help me stand.

“Awake!” He’ll call, and hearts will soar,
As love revives forevermore.
No sorrow left, just laughter’s sound,
In peace and joy, new life abounds.

You rest a while, your pain is gone,
The fight you fought is finally won.
I’ll hold your smile within my heart,
Until the day we’re no more apart.

The morning comes, the sun still shines,
Though sorrow lingers through the pines.
But hope grows bright like dawning light,
Death’s not the end — not in God’s sight.

“Awake!” He’ll call, and hearts will soar,
As love revives forevermore.
No sorrow left, just laughter’s sound,
In peace and joy, new life abounds.

Jehovah’s word, so sure, so true,
Says life will come to all anew.
The graves will open, sleepers rise,
Rejoicing voices fill the skies.

The garden blooms beneath God’s care,
I see your smile reflected there.
Each bud a sign of love’s return,
Each dawn a spark of things we learn.

“Awake!” He’ll call, and hearts will soar,
As love revives forevermore.
No sorrow left, just laughter’s sound,
In peace and joy, new life abounds.

No tears, no pain, no darkened fears,
When Christ calls out, all life reappears.
The earth renewed, the meek abide,
Forever living, side by side.

So till that day, I’ll keep the faith,
Walk firm and steady in His grace.
The grave’s cold stone can never bind,
The ones Jehovah keeps in mind.

“Awake!” He’ll call, and hearts will soar,
As love revives forevermore.
No sorrow left, just laughter’s sound,
In peace and joy, new life abounds.


Oh, the sting of death will fade away,
When God brings dawn to endless days.
The ones we’ve lost we’ll hold once more,
In paradise, on earth restored.

They’re sleeping now, no fear, no pain,
Just waiting till they rise again.
Jesus' voice will call their name,
And wake them up, their life reclaimed.

“Awake!” He’ll call, and hearts will soar,
As love revives forevermore.
No sorrow left, just laughter’s sound,
In peace and joy, new life abounds.
“Awake!” He’ll call, and hearts will soar,
As love revives forevermore.
No sorrow left, just laughter’s sound,
In peace and joy, new life abounds.
In peace and joy, new life abounds.
