A sacred hymn with text by Mark Fotheringham below.   Watch on YouTube: Awake to God


Overcome by fear and dread,

All his sins remembered,

Warned by heaven's messenger,

Alma sleeps in God.

 

Only as he cries unto the Lord,

Light replaces pain with joy.

Born again to life anew,

Alma wakes to God.

 

Prompted by the pow'r of God

In His servant Ammon,

King Lamoni sleeps in God,

Learning of the Lord.

 

Light dispels the darkness from his mind.

Overcome is he with joy.

Now his queen awaits the hour

King Lamoni wakes.

 


Having lead his people home,

Saving them from danger,

Meeting Alma once again,

Ammon sleeps in God.

 

Swallowed up in joy, his strength is spent,

His beloved people saved.

Friends embrace and lift him up.

Ammon wakes to love.

 

Travelling through life may we

Serve the Lord with pleasure,

Penitent and humble be,

Happiness to seek.

 

'Til the day we come before the Lord,

Feel His love, His warm embrace.

After sleeping in the dust,

All awake to God.
