lyrics

In the middle of a valley
Stranded and alone
In the middle of a valley
W/ no quarter for the phone
I found myself surrounded
By a sea of scattered bones

W/ a voice like echoed thunder
W/ a voice like breaking waves
The Lord of heaven told me
By the name of He who saves
To preach unto these dry bones
& to raise them from the grave

W/ a rattle and a shakin’
The graveyard came to life
As with tendon, flesh, & skin then
The bones were fitted tight
& with the power of the 4 winds
God breathed the breath of life

These bones you see a dancin’
By the light of dawn’s first rays
They’re the people of the promise
& they dance in thanks and praise
& Jesus is the reason
He’s the word of life that saves
