Give Us A Dream
Alexa and Christian Sharma

Lyrics

Verse One
She’s never heard of amazing grace
She thinks faith in Christ will lead her to a place
Where her worst fears will all come true
Where the worst burn is knowing God has rejected you
She’s uneducated, without experience
Afraid to ask questions, with no reassurance
And she lies awake and wonders
If there might be more for her

Chorus
Give her a dream, O God
Show her the way, O God
Open her eyes in the night and fill up the sky
With ripening rain
Give her a dream, O God
Show her the truth, O God
Give her the answer to questions she isn’t asking
But longing to see
Give her a dream; give her a dream

Verse Two
He thought he knew everything
Put his life and his trust into something crumbling
And now his doubts turned out to be real
And the worst pain is the pain of betrayal
He’s well educated, with many questions
He wants to believe, but he’s hurt by religion
And he lies awake and wonders
If he could ever trust another Word

Chorus
Give him a dream, O God
Show him the way, O God
Open his eyes in the night and fill the sky
With ripening rain
Give him a dream, O God
Show him the truth, O God
Give him the answer to questions he’s always asking
He just needs to see
Give him a dream

Bridge
It’s too difficult, it’s too dangerous
They don’t listen; they reject us
But I know, Lord, you have someone
Who is out there; who is open

Chorus
So give us a dream, O God
Show us the way, O God
Open our eyes in the night and fill up the sky
With ripening rain
Give us a dream, O God
Show us Your vision, O God
Give us the answer to questions we’re always asking
So they will believe
Give us a dream
