Garnett Silk - The Rod

(Smith) Smith Garnet

Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

I wanna share something with you
Wanna share something with you...
 
Music is the rod and we are Moses
Exodus 4:4 - And the LORD said unto Moses,
Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail.
And he put forth his hand, and caught it, and
it became a rod in his hand:
Exodus 7:19 - And the LORD spake unto Moses,
Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out
thine hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their
streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds,
and upon all their pools of water, that they may
become blood; and that there may be blood
throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels
of wood, and in vessels of stone.
Leading God's Children to the Promised Land
Nehemiah 9:23 - Their children also multipliedst
thou as the stars of heaven, and broughtest them
into the land, concerning which thou hadst
promised to their fathers, that they should go in
to possess it.
Music is the voice of his brother Aaron
Exodus 4:14 - And the anger of the LORD was
kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron
the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak
well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet
thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in
his heart.
Exodus 7:1 - And the LORD said unto Moses, See, I
have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy
brother shall be thy prophet.
Exodus 7:2 - Thou shalt speak all that I command
thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto
Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out
of his land.
Preaching and comforting at the Father's command

We have the power to turn things around
It's for us to stand up when we fall to the ground
I say this with a smile, pause for a while
Listen my son, the Prophets have come

Chorus

No use trying to compromise the Truth
Our eyes are open, we're taking our youths
To the Land of our Father, Mama Africa
Prepare yourselves, tell it to your neighbour

Chorus
 
Striking the rock, making true love flow
Numbers 20:11 - Then came the children of Israel,
even the whole congregation, into the desert of
Zin in the first month: and the people abode in
Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
Psalm 78:20 - Behold, he smote the rock, that the
waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can
he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his
people?
Old and flowing love is what we need to go
With this, things can only be better
Setting the foundation for the future

Chorus

We have the power to turn things around
It's for us to stand up when we fall to the ground
I say this with a smile, pause for a while
Listen my son, the Prophets have come
