(ver. 1)
Keith Green
Asleep in the Light by Keith Green

G      Am7         C            D              G
Do you see, do you see, all the people sinking down?
           Am7              C           D               Em
Don't you care, don't you care, are you gonna let them drown?
     D             G           Am7        C
How can you be so numb not to care if they come?
            Am7-G       Em-D               G     Am7-C-D
You close your eyes and pretend the job's done.

G             Am7            C                  D          G
"Oh bless me Lord, bless me Lord" you know it's all I ever hear
         Am7         C             D              Em
No one aches, no one hurts, no one even sheds one tear.
       D                   G              Am7            C
But He cries, He weeps, He bleeds, and He cares for your needs
    Am7          G         Em  D          G   C  G         Am7           G
And you just lay back and keep soaking it in. Oh can't you see it's such sin
C               G               D                     C
Cause He brings people to your door and you turn them away
        Em       D         G               Am7             C           G
As you smile and say "God bless you, be at peace", And all heaven just weeps.
            C            G     Am7             C          G        Am7-C-D
Cause Jesus came to your door, you've left Him out on the streets.
  
G    Am7      C       D              G                Am7               C
Open up,open up, and give yourself away, You see the need, you hear the cries
   D           Em          D                    G               Am7     C   
So how can you delay? God's calling, you're the one, but like Jonah you run
      Am7         G            D               G   C  G         Am7    G 
He's told you to speak but you keep holding it in; 
C  G         Am7    G      C
Oh can't you see it's such sin?   
C    A                       D                               Bm
The world is sleeping in the dark that the church just can't fight
                         Em         D             G 
Cause it's asleep in the light, how can you be so dead,
            Am7         C
when you've been so well fed?
C      G            Am7            C              G          C
Jesus rose from the grave and you, you can't even get out of bed
G              Am7      G              Am7-G           C  A-A7-A-A7-D-Dsus-D
Oh, Jesus rose from the dead, Come on, get out of your bed
Em        D       G           Am7          C
How can you be so numb not to care if they come?
G              Am7         G         Em    D          G -Am7-G
You close your eyes and pretend the job's done (x3) (End - Am7 C D)
G    Am7         C                   D      G
Come away, come away, come away with me my love (x4)
