Ezekiel 37:1-14New Living Translation (NLT)
A Valley of Dry Bones
37 The Lord took hold of me, and I was carried away by the Spirit of the Lordto a valley filled with bones. 2 He led me all around among the bones that covered the valley floor. They were scattered everywhere across the ground and were completely dried out. 3 Then he asked me, “Son of man, can these bones become living people again?”
“O Sovereign Lord,” I replied, “you alone know the answer to that.”
4 Then he said to me, “Speak a prophetic message to these bones and say, ‘Dry bones, listen to the word of the Lord! 5 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Look! I am going to put breath into you and make you live again! 6 I will put flesh and muscles on you and cover you with skin. I will put breath into you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
7 So I spoke this message, just as he told me. Suddenly as I spoke, there was a rattling noise all across the valley. The bones of each body came together and attached themselves as complete skeletons. 8 Then as I watched, muscles and flesh formed over the bones. Then skin formed to cover their bodies, but they still had no breath in them.
9 Then he said to me, “Speak a prophetic message to the winds, son of man. Speak a prophetic message and say, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, O breath, from the four winds! Breathe into these dead bodies so they may live again.’”
Through the eyes of man it seems
There's so much we have lost
As we look down the road where all
The prodigals have walked
And one by one the enemy
Has whispered lies
And led them off as slaves
But I know that you are God,
Yours is the victory
We know there is more to come
That we may not yet see
So with the faith you've given us
We step into the valley unafraid
(Chorus)
We call out to dry bones,
Come alive, come alive
We call out to dead hearts,
Up out of the ashes,
Let us see an army rise
We call out to dry bones, come alive
God of endless mercy,
God of unrelenting love
Rescue every daughter
Bring us back the wayard sons
And by Your spirit breathe upon them
Show the world that You alone can save
You alone can save
(chorus)
So breathe, oh breath of God
Now breathe, oh breath of God
Breathe, of breath of God
Now breathe
(repeat 4x)
(Chorus)
We call out to dry bones come alive
Oh come alive
Oh come alive

This is the link to her video, it explains the message behind the song. I have posted this type of message before, but it is something The Lord has put on my heart again. It was a personal wake up call from Him, saying I am here to revive your dry bones. I am here to breathe a new life into you. I am here to give you a new hope and passion. So, you see even if life or life situations seem bleak, or you are just going through the motions. You feel like you may have lost your way. Not necessarily lost your love or faith in God, but maybe you just need a fresh breath of life. Take a moment and ask Him to breathe His life into you. You will be amazed when He answers...just my cents
