Analysis of Brought forth wind
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
We came to the birth but we brought forth wind,
What do you see?
A world full
Of sin.
Where is the deliverance on the earth?
Have the wicked
Fallen yet?
Their coarse
Doom.
They are dead. Are deceased, they shall not rise.
Their memory
To perish
No more
Lies.
The dead men shall live with his dead body.
Arise and sing
Dew will bring
Dead bodies
Out
Of
The ground
Shut your doors
For a moment
Hid yourself away
The Lord from his holy habitation
Exalted
In that
Day.
