Elijah

Re les noi In the days of Ahab Jezebel reigned Baal was worshipped

Prophets were slain Altars torn down Fear filled the land But the word of the Lord still came

The people had forgotten His name False gods on every hill they made I built the altar, soaked it wet I called His name, the fire set

Flames consumed the stone and ground And every knee fell to the sound The Lord is God, the Lord is God In the silence of despair

Fire fell, his love was there But after victory came the fall One threat from Jezebel ended it all I ran to the desert, prayed to die

Enough, Lord, please, was my cry How can triumph feel so hollow? When fear is the shadow you follow A cave of voice, the world stood still

Not in fire or wind or hell A whisper spoke, you’re not alone Seven thousand knees have not bowed down In the silence of despair

The fire fell, his love was there Oh, his love was there The fire came down once more But this time it carried me home

They’ll tell my story
