Dry Bones

Lyrics

[Intro] I had a vision from the Lord and He revealed to me where His people were, where His people are today, and where they will one day be [Verse 1: Elsie] Being led by the spirit of God I was brought into the midst of the city Where young ones dwell with no peace and no pity No hope to call on Salvation to fall on The spirit whispered to me it ain't long before they're all gone I looked around and seen dark streets with sick pleasures On one corner corrupt cops of all measures A young woman and man looking for fake treasure A drug abuser used looking for false pleasure What kind of children are raised in this wicked ally? A tear fell from my eyes And as the tear reached the ground and spread Then the city became a valley A valley of dry bones Death as far as my eyes could see What kind of place could this be? The spirit looked at me Took me by the hand Started walking through the land He proceeded to tell me God's plan Said these bones represent the living dead you just saw Bones God created but devil made hardcore Now I'ma need someone to speak the words to restore Prophecy to these bones and get them ready for war I said for real God I'm with that He asked me where's my Bible I said I'ma go and get that Just give me all the words God You know I'm down to flip that Hardcore message of the gospel I kick that Enemy needs to get back I stepped back Took a look around Everything was safe and sound I felt my heart thumpin' and I felt my chest pound The anointing that He placed on my heart Made me know I was appointed by the king from the start We stay together not disjointed And from Him I don't part Yo, for real He gives me strength to fight the fiery darts Said speak to the death and the dry bones of ages And I'll give them breath as I turn back the pages Pages of time Back when once they was mine Before they fell to the drugs and the sex and the crime Before they bowed on their knees to the prince of the darkness Before they hid under the sea like the Lochness Before they turned their hearts and traded my love for swords And I do this for one person so that they know that I'm the Lord [Hook] Speak to them bones Tell them, "Come forth", so they know (I Am the Lord) In one accord Wielding a sword, so they know (I Am the Lord) Speak to them bones Tell them, "Come forth", so they know (I Am the Lord) In one accord Wielding a sword, so they know [Verse 2: Macho] And then I felt the earth rumbling trembling mountains disassembling Couldn't even walk in my Timberlands Before My eyes I seen this once blue skies Turn into rushing winds and once again appeared the bright lights Spirit of God came to me said "Son of man prophesy it's My will that all repent It ain't My will that one die" With the blast of energy I received from the Spirit Much to be afraid of but no need to fear it Alone in this valley with Dry Bones around me Fear tried to grip me but God's peace surround me Found Him to be an ever present help in trouble Can't let words be stopped cause of the plans of the devil I said I prophesy in the name of the Lord When you bones resurrect no longer live by the sword I prophesy in the name of the King When the Spirit gives life a new song will you sing I prophesy in the name of the Father When you receive breath you prostrate before the altar I prophesy in the name of the Son No longer be defeated cause the victory is won Then one, two, ten thousand and more Dry bones resurrected, it was mad hardcore My eyes couldn't receive the vision that was before me The hand of the Lord moved I fell to the floor They came bone to bone receiving muscles on flesh Army fatigues, Timberlands and ill bubble vest Iniquity departed far as east is to west A new creation the old man put to rest Ex base heads teen drug fiends and crack addicts Kids who walked streets with ill techs and automatics The kind who just roamed the earth looking for static Backsliders and backstabbers Ex Bible fanatics Millions as far as the eye could see All standing at attention like a vast army Resurrected but yet with no breath or revival Which is vital for their life and survival For five full seconds the earth became black Then the kick and the snare came back Like an attack the rushing winds came bustin' in And the presence of God it was ushered in They started movin' to the beat the Lord dropped And like true Hip Hop the Spirit just wouldn't stop Filled with the fire of the Holy Ghost Ready for representing the Lord of Hosts Chanting I'll represent I won't be hesitant The Kingdom suffers violence so I'm getting militant They were strapped with the sword of the Spirit on their side Filled cause the Father gave them fire from on high My mind pressed rewind to what the Lord said before He said I do this for one purpose So that they know that I'm the Lord [Hook] Speak to them bones Tell them, "Come forth", so they know (I Am the Lord) In one accord Wielding a sword, so they know (I Am the Lord) Speak to them bones Tell them, "Come forth", so they know (I Am the Lord) In one accord Wielding a sword, so they know (I Am the Lord) Speak to them bones Tell them, "Come forth", so they know (I Am the Lord) In one accord Wielding a sword, so they know (I Am the Lord) Speak to them bones Tell them, "Come forth", so they know (I Am the Lord) In one accord Wielding a sword, so they know (I Am the Lord)
