Jakob

I close my eyes but cannot sleep
Too many thoughts, I can’t escape
The night is cold and I have no bed
The stone is hard beneath my head

I’ve been running or fighting since the day I was born
Just a step away from eternity’s door
Running for my life with no place to go
Keep on fighting ’cause it’s all I know

chorus
You were in this place and I never knew
You still had a plan when I was untrue
You opened up the heavens and provided a way
For me to stand before You and not to be afraid

You are the One that provides my every need
You’re the One that protects me when I sleep
Take my life, it’s an offering to You
With all I have, I’ll worship You alone

Refrain:
I found rest here in the house of God
I found peace at the gates to heaven
I see angels ascending, descending from the presence of the Lord
And You promise me, You will not leave, until Your work is done
