Music’s no mystery
Music's no mystery, mechanics and math
Hit the notes, hear the glory
Tell ya what is strange, the way the characters change
All of 'em showing the same story
Moses used his staff, Elijah took his cloak
Dividing water's easy for our Lord
Chariots of fire, brought Elijah Higher
Dry ground again, God made the Prophets ford
There is some mystery, throughout History
Some say there's still one lost letter
Corinthians repent, that was God's intent
All can now see what is better.
2 Kings 2:7-12
7 Fifty men from the company of the prophets went and stood at a distance, facing the place where Elijah and Elisha had stopped at the Jordan. 8 Elijah took his cloak, rolled it up and struck the water with it. The water divided to the right and to the left, and the two of them crossed over on dry ground.
9 When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, “Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken from you?”
“Let me inherit a double portion of your spirit,” Elisha replied.
10 “You have asked a difficult thing,” Elijah said, “yet if you see me when I am taken from you, it will be yours—otherwise, it will not.”
11 As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind. 12 Elisha saw this and cried out, “My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen of Israel!” And Elisha saw him no more. Then he took hold of his garment and tore it in two.
2 Corinthians 7:8-9
8 Even if I caused you sorrow by my letter, I do not regret it. Though I did regret it—I see that my letter hurt you, but only for a little while— 9 yet now I am happy, not because you were made sorry, but because your sorrow led you to repentance. For you became sorrowful as God intended and so were not harmed in any way by us.
