lyrics
Night fell on me like a heavy dream
Of angels coming and going
I thought I heard You say
You’d keep me safe and walk with me
I waited by the riverside for Esau
To come and take my life
Like I took his own years ago
Israel, I struggle to be redeemed
Israel, You freely give Your blessing
I wrestle with You before dawn
When the night is darkest
And You break me down
Till there’s nothing left but a new name
Israel, I struggle to be redeemed
Israel, You freely give Your blessing
Shed the skin, shear the lies I left behind
Dress me with a blessing truly mine
Shed the skin, shear the lie that made me blind
Dress me with a blessing truly mine
Israel, I struggle to be redeemed
Israel, You freely give Your blessing
