Michael Card - Asleep On Holy Ground lyrics

Your rating:

A stone for a pillow as hard as his head

He slept on holy ground

The dreaming deciever, he drempt of a ladder

With angels up and down



And the ladder was a way

The stairway was a sign

The gates of heaven opened wide

revealing the divine



Asleep on holy ground he lay

Oblivious to the night

Inside his head and heart were full of inexpressible light

Soon he would be confronted by the friend that we most fear

Asleep on holy ground he lay

deceitful blessed seer



The dream that he drempt now transformed to a nightmare

As he wrestled with a man

The unearthly power of his beloved opponent made Jacob understand



That the wrestling was the way

The struggle was the sign

He limped away his lesson learned

Now israel was defined



Chorus:

He limped away on holy ground awakened from the dream

Having learned his costly lesson from the way of the Nazarine

That pain's the path to blessing love will fight us to be found

and God remains a dream to those who sleep on holy ground



Chorus
