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...
