Blog Post by Matt Dermody. One of the Warriors at The Grove!
The LORD reminded me of a song me and my old band, Send Benjamin, were working on years ago...the central theme was about recognizing being spiritually dead in some areas of our lives and by confessing those areas, we become alive in Christ again.
Raise The Dead
Callousness has come and stopped the beating heart
Selfishness fills the void, but leaves an empty hole
We the victims of our inhumanity
We need the help of God to come revive our souls
Our razor tongue cuts the throat with brazen lies
Sin comes, pollutes the air and chokes our lungs of breath
We the victims of our man-made tragedy
We need the help of God to bring us back from death
Trapped in this coffin called life so ordinary
Locked in this paradox known as the status quo
We the victims of our own complacency
We need the help of God to let the prisoners go
Raise the dead, let the life re-enter
Raise the dead, let the light open our eyes
Wake from eternal slumber
No longer six feet under
Come on and open our eyes, let us arise.
