Burn the Bones
... O altar, altar, thus saith the LORD:
Behold, a child shall be born unto the
house of David, Josiah by name; and
upon thee shall he offer the priests of
the high places that burn incense upon
thee, and men’s bones shall be burnt
upon thee.
— 1 Kings 13:2
Take the evildoer bones
out of their sepulchre
Lay them wicked bones on the altar,
let them be turned to ashes
by the consuming fire
Holiness is a devouring flame
The prophecy told long ago finally came,
fulfilled thru Josiah by name
He burned those false priests’ bones on the altar,
the word of God reduced them to ashes
Burn the bones ... devil worshipers cremate
Give the wicked, who love doing evil, a taste
Give them a taste of the fiery brimstone lake ...
This is what evildoers desire,
God’s holy ways and righteous judgments they hate;
so raise them out of the grave,
then throw them into the burning lake
Give them the second death, the final oven bake;
let them sample a slice of the sulfur molten cake,
drink of the brimstone milk on the Devil’s doomsday
Josiah took them evil bones
out of their resting place,
he cast them out of their grave
Josiah was chosen by God
to perform the holy desecrate
To burn the bones ... do the prophetic cremate
Josiah, the righteous king,
cast those evil bones out of their burial place
He tossed them wicked bones into the altar blaze,
he burnt those bones ... gave them the holy desecrate
Oh evildoer, if you go to the grave ...
then it’s too late to be saved
But God’s gonna give evildoers a second chance,
which they will still wickedly waste
When the wicked get raised from the grave,
they’re gonna try to kill the saints,
whom they always did ungodly hate
So God’s foreknowledge
was as the prophecy said:
Let them taste the second death, the final oven bake
Oh, holy altar: burn them bones ...
body and soul do cremate
Then take those evildoer ashes,
and pour them into the burning lake
