LAND OF PLENTY
(Words and Music by J. Douglas Wright and Brandon “Swaff” Swafford, 2019)
Where is the focus?|Some hocus pocus|has lulled the world to sleep|And in this slumber|Lost is the wonder|Riches surround our feet|We have a life (the gift of life was given freely)|Still we decide (still we decide to live completely)|In malaise|So unfazed|We have it all (we have more than we ever needed)|We want more (still we are living discontented)|In this haze|Wasted days|Wake up|Wake up|See the light that’s shining from Heaven’s skies|Wake up|Wake up|Open up your eyes|Wake up|Wake up|Blessings flow like water from Heaven’s shore|Wake up|Wake up|There is so much more|Is it hypnosis|Numbing emotions|Feeding this apathy?|Is being robotic|A new narcotic|Blinding our eyes to see?|We have a heart (we don’t even think about it beating)|Full of blood (we don’t even think about it)|Beating like drums|Beat those drums|We have air (we don’t even think about breathing)|In our lungs (we don’t even think about it)|Should be breathing like dragons|Breathing fire like dragons|Oh yeah|How are we needy|In this land of plenty?|Oh yeah|How are we hungry|With manna falling from the sky?|Oh yeah |How are we needy|Living here in this land of plenty?|Oh yeah|How are we hungry|With manna falling from the sky?|Wake up|Wake up|See the light that’s shining from Heaven’s sky|Wake up|Wake up|Time is slipping by|Wake up|Wake up|Blessings flow like water from Heaven’s shore|Wake up|Wake up|Time will be no more|
