Dry Bones Lyrics

I won't die, won't bury, won't sink
'Cause love is a spirit I drink
I'll be free in the morning light
'Cause your touch is the medicine of life
There's a dance to this beat, let's shake
Every move 'til my body awake
There's a sound, you and me are one
And your hope is the rhythm I drum

Is your soul in the desert?
Are your dreams in the sand?
Can't dance with the devil
'Til he's off your back

'Cause these dry, dry bones
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
'Cause these dry, dry bones
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
'Cause these dry, dry bones
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
'Cause these dry, dry bones
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up

Take my hand, let it set you free
Keep on working on your destiny
There's healing in the air, get touched
Can you feel it? 'Cause the message is love, ah

Is your soul in the desert?
Are your dreams in the sand?
Can't dance with the devil
'Til he's off your back

'Cause these dry, dry bones
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
'Cause these dry, dry bones
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
'Cause these dry, dry bones
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
Dry, dry bones
Rise up, gonna rise up
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
Gonna rise up, gonna rise up
Gonna rise

Them bones, them bones, them dry bones
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones (hey)

(Dry, dry bones)
(Dry, dry bones)

Rise, rise
Rise, rise
Rise, rise
Rise, rise (hey)

Oh-oh, rise up
Oh-oh, rise up
Oh-oh (hey)
