The lyrics speak of breathing life into dry bones, a clear reference to Ezekiel's vision, and celebrate the redeemed being awakened by God's presence. The song emphasizes that believers are destined for thrones, not graves, and encourages singing until that hope is realized.

I've come to breathe life on dry bones
Just like I see my Father do
I know this ground is not our home
It's only meant for passing through
We were meant for thrones and not for graves
And my Father said to sing until they wake
This is the sound of life beginning
This is the song of the redeemed
It was the rhythm of Your dancing
That woke me from my sleep
This is the sound of hope returning
All Your children coming home
I can hear the sound of heaven
Singing over us
I've come to breathe life on dry bones
Just like I see my Father do
To celebrate they're coming home
Before they even start to move
'Cause we were meant for thrones and not for graves
And my Father said to sing until they wake
This is the sound of life beginning
This is the song of the redeemed
It was the rhythm of Your dancing
That woke me from my sleep
This is the sound of hope returning
All Your children coming home
I can hear the sound of heaven
Singing over us
Woah, we'll join the song You sang to us and
Woah, we'll join the dance that woke us up and
Woah, we'll join the song You sang to us and
Woah, we'll join the dance that woke us up and
Woah, we'll join the song You sang to us and
Woah, we'll join the dance that woke us up
This is the sound of life beginning
This is the song of the redeemed
It was the rhythm of Your dancing
That woke me from my sleep
This is the sound of hope returning
All Your children coming home
I can hear the sound of heaven
Singing over us
I can hear the sound of heaven
Singing over us
