NUMBERS – We Are Holy Too by Bro H

Verse 1 We stood in line when the camp was drawn, Every tent in its ordered place, Watched the sons of Aaron pass us by With fire and linen on their face. We bore the holy things, carried what could not be touched, We knew the law, we knew the way, But something burned we never spoke When the altar smoke would rise each day. Verse 2 They marked the ground we couldn’t cross, They named the limits of our call, But are we not the chosen too? Did Yahweh not speak to all? We kept the charge, we served the house, We walked where few men trod— So tell us why the door is shut If we stand before the same God. Chorus We are holy too, every one, All the congregation stand as one, Why should you rise above the rest? Why should Aaron wear the crown and vest? If the ground is holy where we stand, Why does power sit in one man’s hand? Verse 3 We gathered names, we gathered men, Princes strong and voices bold, Two hundred fifty stood with us, With censers bright, with fire and gold. Moses said, “You’ve gone too far,” But we said, “No—this ends today,” If God is just, He’ll show us now Who has the right to lead the way. Verse 4 The morning came, the fire was lit, The air was thick, the camp stood still, No word fell from the tent that day, No answer bent to human will. Then the ground beneath our feet Began to crack, began to groan, And pride had time for one last breath Before the earth claimed its own. Chorus (repeat, slower) We are holy too… we said it loud, We said it proud before the crowd, But holiness is not a claim, And calling doesn’t bend to name. Bridge We wanted fire, we wanted place, We wanted what was not assigned, And found too late that zeal for God Does not excuse a rebel mind. Final Verse Now let this stand as a sign in stone To every heart that seeks control: You do not seize what God appoints, You do not vote on holy roles. The earth remembers what we said, The fire remembers just the same— Not all who speak of holiness Survive the weight of what they claim
