You See a Valley Of Bones
You see a valley of bones
Stretching over the land before you
You see a valley of bones
Scattered over the whole world through
Parched, dry and broken
Left lying for all to see
You see a valley of bones
The remnants left within me
You see a valley of bones
Bleached white, dead and gone
You see a valley of bones
No mem'ry of breath living on
Destroyed, left forgotten
None living to care
You see a valley of bones
Abandoned, long since stepped bare
You see a valley of bones
Son of man, can they live again?
You see a valley of bones
Son of man, prophesy to them
That I'll give them new bodies
Revive them again
You see a valley of bones
Where once was an army of men
You see a valley of bones
Hopeless and left there to die
You see a valley of bones
Unable to enter new life
But living they are
And standing before you
You saw a valley of bones
But I saw the lives to renew
Grace's meditation after reading Ezekiel 37
And another two just because:
It's so simple
Such a simple story
Yet so impossible
That God stepped down from glory
To wear my every sin and
Bear my heavy shame
To die and rise again, and then
I'll live to bless His name.
Looking For Something
Looking for something
That you left behind?
An 'other' to satisfy
To prove that our kind
Can live in happiness
Without our Creator's touch
His love
That we left behind.
Looking for something?
You left it behind
When you chose
To step outside God's grace
Can't name it
But I sense it
Something is missing
Something's not right
Looking for something?
I'm afraid you misplaced it
Back when you rejected God's plan
Find an alternative if you wish
It won't work
A bottle cap to plug a hole
In a river
Gushing through a dam
No substitute satisfies
Looking for something?
Try back where you started
The life you've forgotten
Before you left for good
Return to your master
The God who forgives
And find your missing something
Jesus.
