Lyrics Ricky Skaggs – Fire From The Sky

Text:

Go and get your prophets
Gather all your fools
The four-hundred fifty
And then bring a couple bulls

A little preperation
So be sure and bring some tools
We’re getting to the bottom of this now

You can make your altar
You can take your time
You can call out to your God
Before I speak to mine
We’ll both ask for a miracle
We’ll both ask for a sign
And the one who answers we’ll know he is God

I believe the Lord will hear my cry
You will see the fire from the sky
You will say the Lord is God most high
Oooooooh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Shout louder to your baal
But you won’t hear a peep
Maybe he is traveling
Or maybe he’s asleep
Maybe he is just busy
Or he’s in his thoughts too deep
We’re getting to the bottom of this now

Turn to this other altar
Pour water on the wood
Fill your jars a few more times
And really soak it good
Ol’ baal can’t bail you out now

But I know someone who could
Yeah the one who answers we’ll know is God

And I believe the Lord will hear my cry
You will see the fire from the sky
You will say the Lord is God most high
Oooooooh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I believe the Lord will hear my cry
You will see the fire from the sky
You will say the Lord is God most high
Oooooooh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oooooooh, oh, oh, oh, oh

(Spoken)
Then the fire of the Lord fell and consummed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust.
And licked up all the water that was in the trench.
And when the people saw it, they fell on their faces and cried «The Lord is God, the Lord he is God»
