Testo Asleep On Holy Ground - Michael Card
Testo della canzone Asleep On Holy Ground (Michael Card), tratta dall'album The Ancient Faith
A stone for a pillow as hard as his head
He slept on holy ground
The dreaming deceiver, he dreamt 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 dreamt 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
He limped away on holy ground, awakened from the dream
Having learned his costly lesson from the way of the Nazarene
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
He limped away on holy ground, awakened from the dream
He learned his costly lesson from the way of the Nazarene
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
