American Contemporary Christian Music artist and worship leader Austin French delivers yet another powerful song of awakening titled Wake up sleeper. According to the pop style artiste, this amazing track was inspired by the daring action of The Lord Jesus at a funeral procession going by as recorded in Luke 7 of The Holy Bible, where He ignored the customary Jewish culture, went and touched the coffin and said, “Arise”.
Speaking further on this track, Austin said:
“It’s a parallel for our own lives, we are all dead in our sin, without a hope or a savior. Jesus says to us, get up, wake up sleeper.”
“Wake up sleeper” is a spiritual song that aims at getting all people, believers and unbelievers alike, to open their hearts to God’s amazing grace. This powerful track is available below for download, listen and stay blessed!

Lyrics: Austin French – Wake Up Sleeper
Thank God for the daylight
I spent a long time in the dark
Felt good saying goodbye
Waking up to a brand new heartAnd if you’re sleeping like I used to be
In a grave that holds you tight
There’s a Savior calling
Promising a brand new life
He’s sayingWake up sleeper
Open your eyes
Oh sinner, arise
Leave your past at the door
Wake up sleeper
Come to the light
Christ is alive
Death don’t live here anymore
Death don’t live here anymoreI bet you like that freedom
I bet you like your new name
Oh, welcome to the kingdom
Yeah, we all feel that waySo if you see somebody sleeping like
The way you used to be
Tell ’em ’bout the Savior
And a little thing called free
Go ahead and sayWake up sleeper
Open your eyes
Oh sinner, arise
Leave your past at the door
Wake up sleeper
Come to the light
Christ is alive
Death don’t live here anymoreRise up and come out of that grave
Rise up in that amazing grace
Oh sleeper, won’t you come awake
Come awakeRise up and come out of that grave
Rise up in that amazing grace
Oh sleeper, won’t you come awake
Come awakeWake up sleeper
Open your eyes
Oh sinner, arise
Leave your past at the door
Wake up sleeper
Come to the light
Christ is alive
Death don’t live here anymoreRise up and come out of that grave
Rise up in that amazing grace
Oh sleeper, won’t you come awake
Come awakeRise up and come out of that grave
Rise up in that amazing grace
Oh sleeper, won’t you come awake
Come awake
