DEM BONES

LYRICS

Oh, the hand of the Lord was upon me
and He brought me to the middle of a valley
Well, I couldn’t believe what I saw there;
the total devastation of an army!

Dem bones, dem bones, dem – dry bones (3x)
Now hear the word of the Lord

Then He told me to talk to the graveyard
“If you prophesy, a miracle will happen”
So, I spoke every word the Lord commanded
and suddenly I heard the bones a’rattlin’

Ezekiel connected them – dry bones (3x)
Now hear the word of the Lord

The foot bone connected to the – ankle bone
The ankle bone connected to the – shin bone
The shin bone connected to the – leg bone
The leg bone connected to the – knee bone
The knee bone connected to the – thigh bone
The thigh bone connected to the – hip bone
The hip bone connected to the – back bone
The back bone connected to the – shoulder bone
The shoulder bone connected to the – neck bone
The neck bone connected to the – head bone

Dem’a bones, dem’a bones gonna – walk around (3x)
Now hear the word of the Lord

The head bone connected to the – neck bone
The head bone connected to the – shoulder bone
The shoulder bone connected to the – back bone
The back bone connected to the – hip bone
The hip bone connected to the – thigh bone
The thigh bone connected to the – knee bone
The knee bone connected to the – shin bone
The shin bone connected to the – ankle bone
The ankle bone connected to the – foot bone
Now hear the word of the Lord

Dem bones, dem bones, dem – dry bones (3x)
Now hear the word of the Lord

Breathe on me – breath of God
Fill me with life anew
