Land Of Nod

Susan Ashton


It ain't black but it ain't white 
It ain't darkness, no, no, but it ain't light 
It ain't cool but it ain't hot 
No, it's something it should be but I know it's not. 

Chorus: 
'Cause we are comfortable here in our slumber 
Lullabyed by the heartbeat of God 
But we can't be alive in His number 
While living in the land of Nod. 

So we lie down by the light of the lamp 
Unaware that there's evil in our camp 
And we snooze and we snore 
And sometimes it's so loud that we can't hear the lion roar. 

Chorus: 
'Cause we are comfortable here in our slumber 
Lullabyed by the heartbeat of God 
But we can't be alive in His number 
While living in the land of Nod. 

Shake it up, wake it up, turn on the light 
We've been asleep for too long 
Souls have been rusted and hearts have been turning to stone 
Oh, where did we go wrong? 

It ain't black but it ain't white 
It ain't darkness, no, no, but it ain't light 
It ain't cool but it ain't hot 
No, it's something it should be but I know it's not. 

Chorus: 
'Cause we are comfortable here in our slumber 
Lullabyed by the heartbeat of God 
But we can't be alive in His number 
While living in the land of Nod...
