Lyrics
Verse 1
I can feel redemption on the wind
Forgiveness like the tide rolling in
Taking up the space where shame has lived
Receiving all that You died to give
Chorus
Let the wind blow, let the tide roll
Till the earth knows, You’re a God of Love
Let my dry bones sing a new song
All the glory to the God of Love
Verse 2
I can see a valley of dry bones
Rattling, moving bone to bone
You breathe the breath of life into our lungs
Marching on our knees we march to love
Bridge
Revival’s in the air
Catch it if you can
He’s moving on the wind
The dawn is breaking
Lift your eyes to see
He’s better than you dreamed
Everything you lost
Love’s returning

Meaning & Inspiration
The song presents revival through images of wind, tide, dawn, and returning life. Redemption displaces shame, while forgiveness arrives with the steady force of water rolling in. The valley of dry bones becomes a picture of restoration as God breathes life into what appeared lifeless. Its repeated focus on the God of love keeps renewal connected to divine mercy rather than human achievement.
The call for dry bones to sing and for the earth to know divine love closely echoes biblical language about resurrection, witness, and hope. Kneeling and marching appear together, joining dependence on God with movement toward love. The bridge looks for signs of a new beginning: dawn breaks, lost things return, and expectations of God are enlarged. Taken as a whole, the lyric is a prayerful declaration that forgiveness can create new life and turn former places of shame into occasions for worship.
