Life has been sleeping
--until now
Sweet strong hands reach to wake me
hold me, mold me, opening my eyes
to all my mind will allow
Turning me inside out
My heart is pumping, churning blood.
I am alive.

A soul has been desperately dreamimg
--until now
A voice from Heaven pierced my night
sang to me, called to me, soothed my ears
wiped away all sorrow and fear
My heart is pumping, churning blood
I am alive!

I have been dead
--until now
Love opened my heart and made a home
touching me, kissing me, filling me
setting Sleeping Beauty free
My soul is singing
My mind is dancing
My body is burning
My heart is pumping, churning blood-
I AM ALIVE!
