The Prophet |
| Reluctant ride in the middle of the belly of a whale |
| A wheel on fire in the middle of the sky |
| Abandoned baby kicking on the side of the road |
| And a wife has died but you’re denied the right to cry |
| Three men walk out protected from a furnace of flame |
| One man cries out from a miry well |
| See a man in the myrtles and women with the wind in their wings |
| Understand what these seared lips can tell |
| I am the prophet and I smolder and burn |
| I scream and cry and wonder why you never seemed to learn |
| To hear with your own ears with your own eyes to see |
| I am the prophet, won’t you listen to me? |
| I am the prophet, won’t you listen to me? |
| I hold out hope to everyone who hears and understands |
| The Word of God can echo in the voice of a man |
| He’s the shadow of a great rock in a dry and weary land |
| With the names of the ones He loved carved into His hands |
| The sorrow in His anger, my eyes weep His tears |
| His life alight in me |
| I am the sword that cuts His people apart |
| I speak the Word that comforts their faithless hearts |
| I am the prophet |
