Arise and Awake: A New Composition for Easter

4/11/2014

Arise and Awake is a song I wrote for performance by the Grosse Presbyterian Church 8:14 Band on Easter Sunday 2014.  The 7-piece ensemble includes Guitar/vocals, bass, drums, keyboards, cello, and 2 backup singers (we are performing another original song here). The recording below is just me and my guitar, keyboard, microphone, and computer.   Solidly in the Christian acoustic rock genre, this song celebrates the return of Jesus on Easter. 

Arise and Awake by Dave Martin

When Jesus cried out 
And the earth split and shouted
The name of the one 
who has come   again

The stone that was placed
Has been rolled away
Nothing stands in the way
Of His amazing grace                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

Arise and awake, oh child of my Grace
And look on the face of your Lord
Arise and awake, your sins did I take
This gift I have made of My love
Arise and awake
Arise and awake

Do not be afraid
As the lightning it shakes 
The light brings us 
grace from above

White as the snow
Our Lord sits aglow
And now you will know
We were never alone

Arise and awake, oh child of my Grace
And look on the face of your Lord
Arise and awake, your sins did I take
This gift I have made of My love

Arise and awake
