    A King's Lament- Jacob's Dream by Jason Upton

    God's Song to Jacob...whether you're building or fighting, don't miss knowing God.

    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

    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

    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
