Dry Bones 

(Lyrics by Dave Taylor, from a vision given to Ezekiel)

A vision came from the spirit of Adonai

He spoke to me and told me to prophesy

He led me where an army had been overthrown

And far and wide I saw a valley of dry bones

I speak to the bones! All you dead men hear it!

Breathe the breath of life! Be filled with the Spirit!

And as I spoke there arose a thunderous din

Bone came to bone death gave way to flesh and skin

He bade me speak and I prophesied to the breath

Come all four winds! Breathe life in these bones of death!

I speak to the bones! All you dead men hear it!

Breathe the breath of life! Be filled with the Spirit!

I heard them say, "Our bones are dried our hope has fled."

I spoke again: Come alive you walking dead!

Open you graves! Death has lost its sting!

Warriors arise! Come forth and serve your King!

I speak to the bones! All you dead men hear it!

Breathe the breath of life! Be filled with the Spirit!
