Generate meaning
1
Reluctant ride in the middle of the belly of a whale
2
A wheel on fire in the middle of the sky
3
Abandoned baby kicking on the side of the road
4
And a wife has died but you're denied the right to cry
5
Three men walk out protected from a furnace of flame
6
One man cries out from a miry well
7
See a man in the myrtles and women with the wind in their wings
8
Understand what these seared lips can tell
9
Chorus:
10
I am the prophet and I smolder and burn
11
I scream and cry and wonder why you never seemed to learn
12
To hear with your own ears with your own eyes to see
13
I am the prophet, won't you listen to me?
14
I am the prophet, won't you listen to me?
15
I hold out hope to everyone who hears and understands
16
The Word of God can echo in the voice of a man
17
He's the shadow of a great rock in a dry and weary land
18
With the names of the ones He loved carved into His hands
19
Chorus
20
The sorrow in His anger, my eyes weep His tears
21
His life alight in me
22
I am the sword that cuts His people apart
23
I speak the Word that comforts their faithless hearts
24
Chorus (2x)
25
I am the prophet
