“Dry Bones” is an American folk song that’s earliest known rendition comes from a recording by Bascom Lamar Lunsford in 1928 that would later appear in The Anthology of American Folk Music in 1952. It tells a collection of different biblical stories from Enoch to Moses and the burning bush.
Oh, Enoch, he lived to be
Three hundred and sixty-five
When the Lord came and took him
Back to heaven alive
I saw, I saw the light from heaven
Shining all around
I saw that light come shining
I saw that light come down
When Moses saw that burning bush
He walked it 'round and 'round
Well the Lord said to Moses
"You're treadin' holy ground"
I saw, I saw the light from heaven
Shining all around
I saw that light come shining
I saw that light come down
Well Adam and Eve in the garden
They's under that sycamore tree
Well, Eve said to Adam
"No, Satan a-temptin' me"
I saw, I saw the light from hеaven
Shining all around
I saw that light come shining
I saw that light come down
I saw, I saw thе light from heaven
Shining all around
I saw that light come shining
I saw that light come down
Dry bones in that valley
Got up and took a little walk
Well, the deaf could hear
Lord, and the dumb could talk
I saw, I saw the light from heaven
Shining all around
I saw that light come shining
I saw that light come down
I saw, I saw the light from heaven
Shining all around
I saw that light come shining
I saw that light come down
