While You Were Sleeping - Casting Crowns

The words are hard to read because of the pictures, So if you have trouble reading them, Here the lyrics are:Oh little town of BethlehemLooks like another silent nightAbove your deep and dreamless sleepA giant star lights up the skyAnd while you're lying in the darkThere shines an everlasting lightFor the King has left His throneAnd is sleeping in a manger tonightOh Bethlehem, what you have missed while you were sleepingFor God became a manAnd stepped into your world todayOh Bethlehem, you will go down in historyAs a city with no room for its KingWhile you were sleepingWhile you were sleepingOh little town of JerusalemLooks like another silent nightThe Father gave His only SonThe Way, the Truth, the Life had comeBut there was no room for Him in the world He came to saveJerusalem, what you have missed while you were sleepingThe Savior of the world is dying on your cross todayJerusalem, you will go down in historyAs a city with no room for its KingWhile you were sleepingWhile you were sleepingUnited States of AmericaLooks like another silent nightAs we're sung to sleep by philosophiesThat save the trees and kill the childrenAnd while we're lying in the darkThere's a shout heard 'cross the eastern skyFor the Bridegroom has returnedAnd has carried His bride away in the nightAmerica, what will we miss while we are sleepingWill Jesus come againAnd leave us slumbering where we layAmerica, will we go down in historyAs a nation with no room for its KingWill we be sleepingWill we be sleepingUnited States of AmericaLooks like another silent night
