Elijah's Challenge: Faith and Fire

Three years with no rain The land was crackin' Elijah heard the Lord now time for a showdown smackin' A thousand days with no rain from Heaven That's a whole lot of drought more than 6,7 Go show yourself to Ahab today

I'll send the rain, show him my way Ahab met Elijah in that time He accused Elijah of a serious crime You troubler of Israel Elijah, that's your name But Elijah proclaimed. Yes, but you get the blame

It wasn't me who worshipped Idols Wasn't me who worshipped Baal Wasn't me who did the cuttin' Wasn't me who made men fail Its your idols that's the problem

that took away the rain It's the worship of the idols that gave you that sin stain! Go and get your silly prophets Both cults are are absurd It's time for a showdown. Yahweh's comin' you heard?

Is Yahweh, God or your idols True Today we'll see what a real God can do! Two bulls prepared, two altars laid But no fire lit no fire starter sprayed Call on your God!

I call Yahweh! The ones that are wrong with their lives they will pay From morning till noon the prophets cried BAAL answer! But no reply.

They leaped and danced thier voices soared yet silence echoed nothing more Elijah mocked. he started to smack talk cry louder, moan.

Maybe he's asleep or he's on the ivory throne They cut themselves. blood streamed red. But no sound came! Like their god was dead
