These Bones Can Live – v5


Dry bones in the valley, waiting
a people, dried up, dead
dry bones moving, by God’s breath
moving closer, together, coming together
by the word of the prophet
one people, one body
pulled together
into union
alive, as one
bone to bone
sinew, flesh, joining
flesh coming together
brought back from death
alive, these bones can live
