Lyrics
Verse 1
Oh, 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
'Til 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
Hey
Verse 2
Oh, I can see a valley of dry bones
Rattling, moving bone to bone
You breathe a breath of life into our lungs, yeah, woo
Marching on our knees, we march to love
Chorus
Let the wind blow, let the tide roll
'Til 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
Hey
Bridge
Revival's in the air (Hey)
Oh, catch it if you can
He's moving on the wind
The dawn is breaking
Oh, lift your eyes to see
He's better than you dreamed
And everything you lost
Love's returning
Revival's in the air (Hey)
Oh, catch it if you can
He's moving on the wind
The dawn is breaking
Oh, lift your eyes to see
He's better than you dreamed
And everything you lost
Love's returning, hey
Chorus
Let the wind blow, let the tide roll
'Til the earth knows You're a God of love
Let my dry bones (Hey) sing a new song
All the glory to the God of love

Meaning & Inspiration
This worship song pictures renewal arriving like weather: "I can feel redemption on the wind" and forgiveness "like the tide rolling in." The first verse speaks of shame being displaced by what Christ "died to give," which frames revival as a gift of mercy rather than a human achievement.
The second verse turns to the valley of dry bones, with bones rattling and moving together as God breathes life into lungs. That imagery closely echoes Ezekiel 37, where the Spirit restores a lifeless people. The chorus asks for the wind to blow until the earth knows God as a God of love, and the dry bones are invited to sing a new song.
The bridge repeats "Revival's in the air" with a call to lift the eyes toward a dawn that is breaking. It describes a God who is better than imagined and a love that returns what was lost, which makes the song well suited to congregational singing about hope and restoration.
