An Army of Saints

All the dry bones, those buried in the ground
those whose ashes, their breath
spread to the four winds

An army of saints, waiting
to be raised up, given new life,
a new home with God

Breath, sinews, new bodies in the air
a place, a home with our savior
ready and prepared, waiting

An army of saints, those who have gone before
faithful, raised up, living once more
waiting in heaven for us
