Here's the lyrics to Matt Gilman's "Every Captive Free" and after wards I'll be taking stuff from my prayer journal that I wrote about the song and the dream as a parallel in some parts.
God will be BOLD. We are UNDERLINED.
"Every Captive Free" Matt Gilman
For Spirit of the Lord God is upon me
Because He has annointed me to preach good news
Take away all of the sorrows and your mourning
To give the oil of joy and a garmet of praise
For I have seen you in your captivity
And I will open up every prison door
So arise and shine for your light has come
And my glory is rising upon you (repeat)
And I am dancing over you
I am singing over you
Songs of deliverance
And I will set every captive free
And you will be with me (repeat)
I have seen you in your captivity
And I will open up every prison door
So arise and shine for your light has come
And my glory is rising upon you
And I am dancing over you
I am singing over you
Songs of deliverance
And I will set every captive free
And you will be will me
You are mine
I have carried the way of all your iniquities
I've carried the burden of all your shame
I have called you by name
I've called you by name
You are Mine (x3)
My journal comments about the parallel about the song and the dream... and life.
"The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me because He has annointed me to preach good news."
- This part sticks out to me because i am about to be leading a study at JCCC.
"Take away all of the sorrow and your mourning, to give the oil of joy and a garmet of praise."
- Just going through this song and comparig it to my dream and now. The craig which normally is a dark room in my dream was so bright. Like so much more joyous and clean like something was lifted, like a burden.
"For Your light has come and My glory is rising upon you."
- The light again in that room and you, I knew your glory was in that room, on that campus cause in my fream I was worshipping you with my arms held high praising you. And your glory was well within me.
"I have carried the way of all your iniquities, I've carried the burden of all your shame."
- I mentioned it earlier, I really feel like that room being bright was like a burden being lifted and that room from what I can remember now full of joy and happiness and praise.
Lord I pray that opening and disecting this song will really be what this dream meant and I pray and hope and pray that this dream was prophectic. That You will use me to preach the good news. Lift up our burdens and our iniquities and replace it with joy and a garmet of praise to worship you.
So I hope you get excited as much as I am every time I listen to this song and/or tell someone about it.
