2 Kings: Elisha's Floating Axe Blues

🎵 **2 Kings Elisha's Floating Axe Blues** 🎵

Welcome to "Floating Axe Blues," a soulful blues song inspired by the miraculous story found in 2 Kings 6:1-7. In this song, we explore the themes of faith, divine intervention, and the power of miracles as we retell the story of a borrowed axe head that sank into the Jordan River and miraculously floated back to the surface through the prophet Elisha's intervention.

**Lyrics:**

*(Verse 1)*
Down by the river, with my axe in hand,
Tryin' to make a livin', buildin' on this land.
Oh, I was workin' hard, just a-choppin' that wood,
Then my axe head flew, didn't go like it should.

*(Chorus)*
Got those floating axe blues, Lord, won't you see me through?
Lost what's borrowed, and it's weighin' on me too.
When my troubles rise and I'm feelin' low,
I need a miracle to lift my soul.

*(Verse 2)*
I cried out to Elisha, "Man, what can I do?"
That axe head's gone, in the river so blue.
He cut a branch, tossed it in the stream,
Next thing I knew, that iron started to gleam.

*(Chorus)*
Got those floating axe blues, Lord, won't you see me through?
Lost what's borrowed, and it's weighin' on me too.
When my troubles rise and I'm feelin' low,
I need a miracle to lift my soul.

*(Bridge)*
Oh, it ain't just about an axe, you see,
It's 'bout trustin' the Lord and His mystery.
Even in the dark, when hope is slim,
There's a light that shines, and it's comin' from Him.

*(Verse 3)*
Now I'm learnin' every day, trustin' in His way,
For when life's troubles come, He'll never delay.
With a little faith and a prophet's sight,
That old axe head floats and makes everything right.

*(Chorus)*
Got those floating axe blues, Lord, won't you see me through?
Lost what's borrowed, and it's weighin' on me too.
When my troubles rise and I'm feelin' low,
I need a miracle to lift my soul.

*(Outro)*
So if you find yourself down by the river's side,
And the weight of the world is too hard to hide,
Remember the axe, let the blues take flight,
Trust in the Lord, and He'll make it right.

**Scripture Reference (2 Kings 6:1-7, WEB):**

1. **Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, "See now, the place where we dwell with you is too small for us.**
2. **Please let us go to the Jordan, and each of us get there a log, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell." He answered, "Go!"**
3. **One said, "Please be pleased to go with your servants." He answered, "I will go."**
4. **So he went with them. When they came to the Jordan, they cut down wood.**
5. **But as one was cutting down a tree, the axe head fell into the water. Then he cried, and said, "Alas, my master! For it was borrowed."**
6. **The man of God asked, "Where did it fall?" He showed him the place. He cut down a stick, threw it in there, and made the iron float.**
7. **He said, "Take it." So he put out his hand and took it.**

This story teaches us about trust, responsibility, and how God cares about every detail of our lives. It reminds us that when we have faith, even the impossible becomes possible.

**Listen, enjoy, and let the blues carry your troubles away!**
