Adamah, Anima

Dust, lifeless dust, drowning in the waters
Called to arise, claiming its worth
Hands, fragile hands, groping in the darkness
Groan in travail, aching for birth

Drawn from the ground, molded by the potter
Earthen vessel for divine breath
Darkened mind susceptible to deception
Cursed with an endless lineage of death

First to rise, first among the fallen
Bringing destruction for all time
Renewed life implies a new creation
Perfect promise, human redefined

Out of dust, into dust
(error revealing)
Out of light, into dark
(bearer of healing)

I will pour out My spirit on all flesh (Anima)
Filling the lifeless mud with My own breath (inspiration)
Raising the firstborn from among the dead (adamah)
I will pour out My spirit on all flesh (animation)
