Awakening

Port-Au-Prince, Haiti.

In our hearts, Lord, in this nation
Awakening
Holy Spirit, we desire
Awakening
 

For You and You alone
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
For the world You love
Your will be done, let Your will be done in me

 
Jacmel, Haiti.

In Your presence, in Your power
Awakening
For this moment, for this hour
Awakening
 
La Montagne, Haiti.

For You and You alone
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
For the world You love
Your will be done, let Your will be done in me
 
This single Mom and her 3 children live in this one-room house. The rest of her house collapsed during the earthquake in January 2010.

Like the rising sun that shines
From the darkness comes a light
I hear Your voice and this is my
Awakening
 

Like the rising sun that shines
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
From the darkness comes a light
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
