shai linne - wake up revealed lyrics
you know, when i consider my life before my encounter with the lord jesus christ, it’s almost like it was a dream and this is the reality. what’s funny is that from the outside looking in, my life was clean. i mean, i was a pretty good dude. i wasn’t a thug. i was respectful to adults, intelligent, etc. my life looked pretty sanitized. but the reality is that i was bound by my sin. i was a slave. it’s like it says in t-tus 3:3-
“for we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various p-ssions and pleasures, p-ssing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another.”
and if i’m honest with myself, that was me. the reality is that i was trapped by a demonic world system that had a lock on my mind and my soul. and there was no escape, even though i tried. i looked for escape in games, sports, comfort- you name it. but at some point i had to come face to face with my biggest enemy- me. the spirit of god, in the midst of my rebellion and, i should add- without my permission- changed my heart and opened my eyes. by god’s grace, i heard the gospel concerning jesus christ, the son of god, who lived a perfect life and died as a subst-tute, taking on himself the wrath that i deserve for my sin. and he rose again from the grave on the third day. and for the first time, the one who i once wanted nothing to do with was now irresistably amazing and fascinating to me. and by the grace of god, i repented and i believed in him and i was saved. at that point, the person i once was- he died. and the life that i lived before- that was dead also. it’s almost as though god were saying to me, “shai, wake up. you’re alive.” and i give god all the glory for that.
