Music: traditional, arranged by The Lost Tribe
Lyrics: Hal Aqua, based on Sephardic song

lyrics

Chorus: Eli Eliyahu / hanavi havena
Eli Eliyahu / por nuestras cazas venga

1. Prophet in disguise / hard to recognize
Have you come and gone / or been here all along?
When will you bring a sign / how will we know it’s time
Our voices rise in song / where you been so long?

2. Messenger from on high / people asking why
We got bitter water to drink / we’re standing on the brink
Elijah, here’s your cup / our tears have filled it up
The door is open wide / we beg you, come inside

Elijah the prophet gonna rock it, bring a warning
‘bout a new day dawning in a blood-red sky
If you gotta ask why, you ain’t been payin’ attention
it takes intention to recognize redemption

Elijah the prophet gonna drop it, bring a sign
’cause it’s time to open our bloodshot eyes,
take us by surprise, hit us on the head, ’cause we been
Dead to what’s real / asleep at the karmic wheel

Elijah the prophet gonna kick it, gonna
Rip out the seams of the schemes of the greedy and the
Power abusers, the losers who think they have won, 'but they’re done, they had their fun, they better run

Eliyahu Hanavi
Comin’ soon
Stay tuned
