Patriarchs & Prophets
05:24
|
|||
|
(verse 1)
Patriarchs and prophets through whom the story is told; If we did follow them we wouldn't long have a home.
For they left the good life, and the ways of the world;
They dug wells in Canaan, at the voice of the Lord.
(verse 2)
Isaac dwelt inside a tent; Rebbecca left and came to him; she left the house of Laban, then Isaac prayed and she had twins
(bridge 1)
Who will go (Isaiah will go) Who will go for us (and Micah); Who will go (Ezekiel will go) Who will go for us (and Zephaniah)
(verse 3)
Some did time behind bars, slept on rocks under the stars; In peril and distress, they spoke to the nations that dwelt afar; Men did come to take them out; gathered forces round about; When they came at them they did trust is God and His chariots
(verse 4)
Sarah was without child; barren and past the time;
A promise seems broken, until it comes alive.
(bridge 2)
Who will go (Jeremiah will go); Who will go for us (and Hosea); Who will go (Abraham will go) Who will go for us (and Zechariah).
(Chorus)
Patriarchs ... they're patriarchs and prophets ... Prophets (repeat)
(bridge 3)
Who will go, Who will go for us (send me, Lord)

Abraham, Abraham
04:20
|
|||
|
I have walked in righteousness, following Your plan;
I wonder of your promise, of people many as the sand.
I would give my eyes to see that promise stand;
I would give my life, to have Isaac home again.
Yet I have had your shelter along the road from Ur;
I cannot forsake You now, so I'll obey Your word.
Isaac God has spoken! A sacrifice He asks ...
Gather sticks around you ... and lie upon your back.
Abram you are righteous ... I will not ask this of you;
All the words of promise, surely will come true.
I too have a son ... precious in My sight;
Look unto the thicket, your God will provide.
(Words from Genesis)
But in blessing I will bless thee multiplying thy seed as the stars of the heaven; and as the sand on the seashore.

(Introduction) Hear 'O Israel: Nebuchadnezzar, the hand of God's wrath comes
(verse 1)
Jeremiah weep for the daughters of Zion;
God has cast down ... the apple of His eye;
Wail prophet wail, as the mountains shake around you;
through you God has shed ... a multitude of tears.
(verse 2)
Shall God indeed leave His chosen ones forever?
Beaten and bound, and off to Babylon;
Wail prophet wail, as the ground quakes around you;
through you God has stayed far from them and near.
(bridge)
Jeremiah weep for the dark day is dawning!
Jeremiah weep for the dark day is come!
End: They shall return to Me ... one day.

Pillar of Fire
04:34
|

|
Moses! Gather all the people;
Take them to the foot of the mountain;
This day trumpets are blowing;
Wind and smoke all astounding.
(chorus)
:I see the Lord descend on Sinai in a pillar of fire on a cloudy day: cloudy day.
Moses! Rope off a region;
A line that none can cross;
God's hand is reaching ...
Egypt was the cost.
(chorus)

Comfort ye my people; I have rent, I have torn
Comfort ye my people; I will build, you are born ...
... again. You are born again; Surely you'll be born again.
Cedars of Lebanon; growing up so tall and strong;
Cedars of Lebanon; like a mother, I do long ...
... (Surely I long) for you; (Surely I long) Surely I long for you; (Surely I long) Yes I long, yes I long ... for you.
Comfort ye my people; Comfort ye my people; (Surely I) Comfort ye.

Jonah's Song
04:02
|
|||
|
I am traveling for the Mighty God;
I ran from Him and was as good as gone;
He sent a mighty wind to take all of us;
So they threw me to the waters
(Chorus)
:Yet forty days (yet forty days) for Nineveh:
I went down to the bottom of mountains;
The waters compassed me about;
The earth with her bars was about me;
Yet will I look to Thy holy temple
(Bridge)
You must believe me, I didn't want to go, I didn't want to go to that evil nation.

Miriam's Dance
04:22
|
|||
|
The horse and the rider, have been thrown into the sea;
So Miriam sang with her sisters;
and beat on tambourines.
Shouts of joy in the desert; wind rattling through the trees; Dead Egyptians are floating; on the top of the reeds.
They do sing songs of joy; for He has triumphed gloriously; Dance, dance Hebrew nation; the land you will see.
An angel goes before you; to slay your enemies;
throughout the wilderness, a warrior he will be
(Bridge)
They do sing songs of joy; They do sing songs of joy
(Finale)
:Miriam dance with your sisters (Miriam dance won't you dance with your sisters:

Although the fig tree shall not blossom; Neither shall the fruit be on the vine;and the fields shall yield no food.
Make my feet like hinds feet,
that I may walk on Thy high places;
on a mountain ... where the clouds meet.
There will I ... know that I shall yet rejoice ... I shall yet rejoice.
The labor of the olive will fail; will I yet joy in the Lord? In the God of my salvation? So I talked to the Most High; I sat stubborn 'til He answered me; I told Him of life, and asked Him, "Why?"
And will I ... surely will I stay until I know ...
'O make my feet like hinds feet, like hinds feet, like hinds feet, like hinds ... feet.

Zechariah's Message
04:42
|
|||
|
Thus says the Lord of Hosts, I was jealous for Zion;
I was jealous for her with ... great fury.
Thus says the Lord of Host, "I am returning to Zion;
and will dwell in the midst of ... Yerushaliam;
Jerusalem will be called, a city of truth;
So the word of the Lord, came to me saying ...
If it be marvelous in the eyes of this people;
Should it not also be marvelous ... in My eyes?
(Bridge)
Thus says the Lord of Hosts, "Let your hands be strong"
Hear these days the words of the prophets;
That were in the day the foundation was laid;
That the temple of the Lord may be ... may be built.

Elisha parted the waters; Elisha healed the pottage;
Elisha called for bears; and flesh they did tear.
Who is this mighty prophet? Who served the great Elijah
He's just a man, he's just a man, trusting a great God.
School of prophets said to him; today your master is taken;
He saw chariots of fire; he held a prophet's attire.
Who is this mighty prophet? Who served the great Elijah;
He's just a man, he's just a man, trusting a great God.
(End)
:Angels are riding in chariots on high:
:Angels are watching in chariots on high:

Samuel is in Shiloh, trying to judge God's people;
Saul is a king (the first) the first for Israel;
David is out yonder, (walking) walking the sheep home;
a sling by his side, and a song for the trail
(chorus)
Give glory to the Lord; Praise His name forever
It's what you were made for ... praise, praise, praise
Jonathon is a brave man (better than) better than his father;
Shooting his arrows, he tells David to hide;
Saul is fallen (as those) as those that can go no farther;
David is running with a song for the ride.
(chorus)

For there sins and for four; I will not turn away
My wrath will I pour; a fire in the gates
To the nations cry; is it time to relax?
The poor hunger and die; you are a tree for my axe
(Bridge) For on the earth the rich do rise, and make their many plans; and in your mind you think them blessed by already they have fell.
Think not I allow; the wicked to last
The ox and the plow; will tear up their grass
For four sins and four five; they have had their last chance
Vengeance is mine; (says the Lord) their souls for My lance

David's Psalm
05:36
|

|
I will praise Him with all my heart,
For He has grabbed me from the miry clay;
I will have words of ... joy in my mouth,
For He has given my praises to sing.
(chorus)
Can I build you a tabernacle a sanctuary for You to dwell
Clap your hands and give Him the glory,
By His power He's made us to stand;
Shout for joy He has changed your story,
By His desire and the Lord's strong hand
(chorus)
(repeat 1st verse)

Jacob & Esau
04:35
|
|||
|
Brothers born together; brothers grow apart;
One has skin tough as leather; the other works in a yard
One would sell his birthright; one would take it away
Isaac having poor eyesight; Jacob stole the blessing one day.
(chorus)
Years apart will heal the anger;
in different lands you both will prosper;
Though Jacob for a time you'll be a servant;
when you return Esau will not treat you as
a stranger; not as a stranger
Isaac favored the older; Rebbecca the younger;
Jacob I have loved; (God said) Esau I have hated;
Esau will birth Edom; Jacob the tribes of Israel;
One will give us trouble; the other will save us from hell.
(chorus)

(chorus)
Ascribe to the Lord, 'O heavenly beings;
Ascribe to the Lord, glory and strength;
Ascribe to the Lord, praise His name;
Worship the Lord, in holy array
(bridge)
The voice of the Lord is upon the waters;
The God of glory thunders;
The voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
The voice of the Lord breaks down the cedars;
It rips and it tears and it shakes the mountains;
The voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
(chorus)
(ending 1)
The voice of the Lord makes the oaks to whirl and strips the fores bare; and in His temple all shout glory, glory to His name
(bridge)
(chorus)
(ending 2)
The voice of the Lord makes the oaks to whirl and strips the fores bare; and in His temple all shout glory, glory to His name. And in His temple all shout glory glory to His name.
Ascribe .... to the Lord ... 'O heavenly beings
