I remember writing this song in the middle of the night when I couldn't get the wonder of redemption of my mind. The song follows Jesus from Gethsemene through the cross to the empty tomb and then to His calling us to follow today.
verse 1
At a place called Gethsemene
On the ground fell a man
He knew there was no turning back
He knew His Father’s plan
So He took the cup
And He got up
And looked at all the lost
He knew He had to save the world
No matter what the cost
verse 2
At a place they called Calvary
On the cross He had to bear
The beating He was given
The thorns pushed through His hair
He paid the price
A fallen Christ
He died up on that tree
Yet with His final moments
He saved both you and me
verse 3
At the tomb three days later
Away the stone rolled
The Savior, He had risen
As He Himself foretold
Though crucified
He was alive
And He’s living still today
Victory through surrender
It is the only way
Optional Chorus
Willingly he came
Willingly he bled
Willingly he died
For me, willingly (2x)
Willingly

so, are you trying to master the Da Vinci sleep or something?
I don't know WHAT I'm doing
Last night I slept like a somewhat normal person (12:30-8:30) and I feel more tired today than usual. Go figure.
that's kinda funny. you always have had odd sleep habits. however, think on this: do we observe normal sleeping hours (say, 11pm-8am) because this is what society has deemed as normal?
Trust me...I'd much rather everyone else switch to my pattern!
I think
Then again....I do really enjoy the 12-5am hours b/c I'm alone...it's quiet..I can do whatever I want. Maybe that's why I don't fall asleep, I don't want to.
