בִּקְעַת עֲצָמוֹת - Valley of Dry Bones

Instrumental Intro

Young Ezekiel and the oracle promised salvation to Israel

Verse 1

I was dragged to a valley grey

Bones on bones in the open air

No breath no pulse no rising chest

A field of what was left of us

And a voice came down like a hammer fall

Pre-Chorus

Speak to the wind

Call it by name

Speak to the wind

Call it by name

Chorus

Come from the four winds breathe on these slain

Come from the four winds let them live again

Rattle and rise rattle and rise

Stand up you dried-up scattered tribe

Come from the four winds let them again

[Post-Chorus] Wake up

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Wake up So opened my mouth and I obeyed

And a sound went through like a quaking tide

Sinew on sinew skin on skin

A great host stood where the dead had been

We were whole we were wrong we were standing tall

Pre-Chorus

Breath in the lungs

Bone into frame

Breath in the lungs

Bone into frame

Chorus

Come from the four winds breathe on these slain

Come from the four winds let them live again

Rattle and rise rattle and rise

Stand up you dried-up scattered tribe

Come from the four winds let them live again

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Wake up

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Wake up

Bridge

We said our bones are dry

We said our hope ran out

We said we are cut off

Cut off cut off

But the ground is going to give

The ground is going to give

Breakdown

Open the graves

Open the graves

Pull me up pull me up

Open the graves

Open the graves

Pull me up pull me up

Chorus

Come from the four winds breathe on these slain

Come from the four winds let them live again

Rattle and rise rattle and rise

Stand up you dried-up scattered tribe

Come from the four winds let them live again

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Wake up

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Wake up. no more slumber, no more slaves
