Lyrics

[verse]
I awoke to my usual sunrise
& fumbled to find the mug
for coffee to open my eyes
with my early morning smug.
In all that I’ve taken for granted;
in all of His faithfulness kept.
The warmth my wretched soul demanded,
was sewn as a quilt while I slept.
(My Lord said)
[chorus]
From the moment you fluffed up your pillow
To mind the devil’s in your head;
I took it from there. I’m your hero.
I rocked you to sleep in your bed.
About the time your soul surrendered
to your worry & weeping
I bottled your tears. Just remember.
[music stop]
I rose again
While you were sleeping.
[verse]
There is a jangle to the keys of the devil
that brings a chill to my bones.
It’s a wrangle & fight
all night wrestle;
Until I’m locked out afraid & alone.
O the Word says my Father don’t slumber.
He counts every snub from my weeping.
Ev’rything the devil done plundered.
My Lord snatched every key
While I’m sleeping.
(Then He said)
[chorus]
From the moment you fluffed up your pillow
To mind the devil’s in your head;
I took it from there. I’m your hero.
I rocked you to sleep in your bed.
About the time your soul surrendered
to your worry & weeping
I bottled your tears. Just remember.
[music stop]
I rose again
While you were sleeping.
[outro]
About the time your soul surrendered
to your worry & weeping
I bottled your tears. Just remember.
[music stop]
I rose again
While you were sleeping.
