Jason Upton - Jacob's Dream lyrics

Jacob really longed to be a hero All I really wanted was a friend I'm the way, the life, the truth So tell Me Jacob when will the lying end? And does the striving make you strong? Because when I came to love on you You fought me till the dawn Finally Jacob's lying down And while he sleeps I will dream Of a generation not known for their crowns, Or success, but a King... Who was not so much as interested in crowds, or Pleasing men, but knowing Me CH: I have given Jacob's generation the key of David, intimacy To open up the doorway to the nations, and release Revelation, of intimacy, with me Jacob had a dream for all the ages Jacob had a drive to build a nation But the fighting is in vain If your only aim is to build your own great name Because My dream's not what you do Jacob will you dream for me The way that I have dreamed for you CH: I have given Jacob's generation the key of David, intimacy To open up the doorway to the nations, and release Revelation, of intimacy, with me
