Broken Bones Rejoice

Lyrics

Verse 1
For the angels who rebelled
Justice was your sentence (II Pet. 2:4, Jude 1:6)
But for humans, dead in sin
You allow repentance (Eph. 2:1, Eph. 2:5, Col. 2:13, Acts 11:18, II Pet. 3:9)
What is man that to his race (Ps. 8:4, Heb. 2:6)
You extend this thing called grace (Heb. 2:16-17)

Chorus
Empty lungs fill with Your breath (Ezek. 37:4-10, Gen. 2:7)
Deafened ears receive Your voice (Isa. 35:5-6, Matt. 11:5, Mark 7:37)
Lifeless eyes behold Your face
And our broken bones rejoice (Ps. 51:8)

Verse 2
Time and time again we fall
Still You keep forgiving (Ps. 103:8-10, Neh. 9:17)
When the demons have no part
In the land of living (II Pet. 2:4, Ps. 27:13, Matt. 25:41)
What is man that to his race (Ps. 8:4, Heb. 2:6)
You extend this thing called grace

Repeat chorus

Verse 3
When the final trumpet sounds (I Cor. 15:52, I Thess. 4:16, Rev. 11:15)
Lifeless ears will hear it (John 5:25, John 5:28)
Once again You’ll fill our lungs
By Your living Spirit (Ezek. 37:9, Rom. 8:11)
What is man that to his race (Ps. 8:4, Heb. 2:6)
You extend this thing called grace

Repeat chorus
