Never Sleeps

While a pastor on the Fort Berthold Reservation I was honored with the Indian name, "NeverSleeps". It was primarily because I was often responding to particular needs in the middle of the night.

Even more relevant, the Lord Himself, Maker of all, "Never Sleeps".

Surely you know.
Surely you have heard.
The Lord is the God who lives forever,
who created all the world.
He does not become tired or need to rest.
No one can understand how great his wisdom is.

Isaiah 40:28

Welcome to every reader. I am a simple follower of Jesus. He is perfect, I often fall short.

We Will Rise Up

 

We Will Rise Up

(“But when Jesus heard this, he said, ‘Now don’t be afraid, just go on believing!’” Mark 5:36)

Arise, shine;
We will rise up.
Arise, shine;
We will meet the day.
Arise, shine;
We will rise up.
Arise shine;
Hear the people say.

She is not dead, but living,
she has not stopped her breathing,
do not fear, but be believing,
the dead are only sleeping.

Life arise;
We will greet you.
Life arise,
We will welcome joy.
Life arise,
We will greet you.
Life arise,
Make a joyful noise.

Christ is here now, he is seeking,
for those who felt the sun setting.
Do not fear, the sun is rising,
the day is only beginning.

Arise, shine;
We will follow.
Arise, shine;
We will mount with wings.
Arise, shine;
We will follow.
Arise, shine;
Hear the people sing.

We are not dead, but living,
we have finished our grieving.
Not afraid, we are believing,
the day will soon be dawning.

Arise, arise, arise.
We will arise.
