about

Ezekiel 37 is one of my favorite passages in the Bible and has always inspired me. I wrote this song as a modern expression of that passage. In Ezekiel 37, God takes Ezekiel to a valley of dry bones and tells him to prophesy to the bones and speak life into them. Ezekiel does it and the entire valley of bones turns into an army of people. Ezekiel realized that the Lord had already provided him with everything to make the bones live. All he had to do was speak the truth into them and they would come alive. When I wrote this song, God was showing me that I had been "trying" to become more whole or more alive in Him when in reality, He had already made me completely whole and completely alive in Him through Jesus. All I had to do was believe and live my life according to that truth. He also showed me this was true for His people too, and He gave me a passion sing the truth over people who are believing that they have to do more of be more rather than just living according to the truth of who they already are.

All profits off of this EP will be going to an orphanage I personally visited in Hyderabad, India (Agape International).

lyrics

Sing, my Beloved
Sing over your soul
Sing over your dry bones
For you have been made whole
My healing rests upon you
My love for you is full
So sing, my Beloved
Sing over your soul

Oh

Sing all my Daughters
Sing all my Sons
Sing over my children
Sing of my love
My glory surrounds you
And My Kingdom has come
So sing all my Daughters
Sing all my Sons

So come and be healed
Be made whole
By this love that I offer
Come, for you are Mine
I have called
You my Sons and my Daughters
