Sharpen Up The Axe!

When I woke up this morning in my warm comfortable bed

I wished I could have stayed there and gone back to sleep instead

But the Lord was beckoning and I knew I'd best obey

So I got up and prepared myself for what he had to say

I thanked him for watching over me throughout the night

And allowing me to wake up surrounded by his light

Then I stopped and listened and as he began to speak

Just the power in his voice was enough to make me weak

He told me how it made him sad to see his children fight

Over things that arn't important like who is wrong or right

I could feel his urgency his concern was very deep

For many of his children who have fallen into sleep

He doesn't want us wasting time trying to prove someone wrong

He wants us to come together we've been fighting way too long

Time is passing quickly there's no time to be lax

He wants us to be prepared to sharpen up our axe
