In the valley of death in the spirit I saw,
The bones of an Army, a million or more.
Sun bleached and white, as dry as can be,
As I passed through the middle, no life could I see.
I wondered how such a great Army was beat,
How did their strength and faith grow so weak.
Slain and disgraced they lay on the ground,
Cut off and dried out with no hope to be found.
(Chorus)
Hear ye, O hear ye the word of the Lord,
Hear ye, O hear ye the word of the Lord,
Stand For the promise of Heavenly reward,
Hear ye, O hear ye the word of the Lord.
But the Lord in his mercy will cause them to live,
Sinew, flesh and skin he will give.
And then they will know that he is their Lord,
The truth of his Word, the touch of his sword.
And God through his grace, will give to them breath,
The spirit of life to overcome death.
For what good is the fire without the coals?
Why follow a plan without any goals?
Chorus
As I looked on in awe the bones were re-knit,
And the sinew, flesh and skin was re-fit.
God breathed on them life and they stood up as one,
The will of the Lord, for his glory, was done.
God has reached down to the depth of the grave,
Giving life to the fallen, to give freedom, to save.
His Spirit will fill them to give them the call,
In his Church they will live, as God planned, one and all.
Chorus
