Somebody Heard
Jeremiah 38 to 39
Lyrics
Jeremiah is lowered into a cistern and left to sink in the mud. One servant of the palace speaks up, and ropes come down from above, because he put his trust in the Lord.
You sank in the mud Jer 38:6
They left you there to die Jer 38:9
But somebody heard Jer 38:7
Left to sink in the mud Jer 38:6
And only a servant spoke up Jer 38:7-8
Ropes let down from above Jer 38:11
Because you put your trust in me Jer 39:18
Because you put your trust in me Jer 39:18
Old rags and worn-out clothes Jer 38:11
Put them under your arms to pad the ropes Jer 38:12
Because you put your trust in me Jer 39:18
Left to sink in the mud Jer 38:6
And only a servant spoke up Jer 38:7-8
Ropes let down from above Jer 38:11
Because you put your trust in me Jer 39:18
Because you put your trust in me Jer 39:18
The city burned, the king was taken Jer 39:5, 8
But the servant walked out alive Jer 39:18
Because you put your trust in me Jer 39:18
Left to sink in the mud Jer 38:6
And only a servant spoke up Jer 38:7-8
Ropes let down from above Jer 38:11
Because you put your trust in me Jer 39:18
Let down the ropes Jer 38:11
Let down the ropes Jer 38:11
And they drew him up with ropes Jer 38:13
And lifted him out of the mud Jer 38:13
I will save you, declares the Lord Jer 39:18
Because you put your trust in me Jer 39:18
