This song first began to percolate in my spirit as I spoke to a PSW who was fearful about the coming bubonic/pneumonic plague. They had already caved to the fear of COVID’s threat against their income and took the vaccine they knew was bad for them. The lyrics were birthed out of chatting with the LORD about the coming plague as many prophets review their old words in light of the plague outbreak in Siberia that has already reached China. He reminded me of my own dreams over the years about it coming and how He would show up and show off. Get ready to see His miraculous Dumanis power flood the earth!
DANCING ON THE GRASSHOPPERS
Julia E. Kelly (Oct 20th, 2026)
Verse 1
Don’t become a grasshopper
In your own sight;
Don’t let the size of giants
Make you tremble in the night.
The ones who went before us
Let their fear deny the land,
But those giants are provision
When the LORD holds out His hand.
Pre-Chorus
Arise, for He has given
The battle to our hands!
The sword of the LORD and Gideon—
We’ll stand at His command!
Chorus
We’re dancing on the grasshoppers,
Giving God our praise!
The Sun of Righteousness is rising;
Watch them flee before His rays.
With healing in His covenant wings,
He lifts our hearts to sing.
Arise and get your boogie on—
We’re dancing for the King!
Verse 2
Down in the valley,
See the grasshoppers swarm;
Yet all their strength is scattered
Before the LORD of storms.
Like Gideon, lift the trumpet;
Let the shout of faith ring out!
Watch their swords turn on each other
As His presence drives them out.
Repeat Chorus
Verse 3
He sits above earth’s circle;
Its people seem so small.
The giants lose their power
When we see Him over all.
Seated with Christ in heaven,
We see through different eyes;
Our feet still dance upon the earth,
Our faith in Him will rise.
Bridge
Let the earthen vessels break;
Let the hidden light shine through!
Your commandment is a lamp;
Your law lights all we do.
Write Your Word upon our hearts;
Let holy lips proclaim
Your living Word, Your rhema breath—
The power of Your name.
Let Your Word go forth, a rod
Against the enemy;
Let every shout declare Your reign,
Let every captive see!
Verse 4
With heaven’s song upon our lips
And worship in our feet,
We tread on snakes and scorpions;
The darkness must retreat.
Your kingdom come upon the earth;
Your will be done here, too.
Let Satan fall beneath our feet
As we rejoice in You!
Final Chorus
We’re dancing on the grasshoppers,
Giving God our praise!
The Sun of Righteousness is rising;
Watch them flee before His rays.
With healing in His covenant wings,
He lifts our hearts to sing.
Arise and get your boogie on—
We’re dancing for the King!
Outro
Like David, dance with all your heart;
Let joyful worship spring!
Before the LORD of lords we dance,
Before the King of kings!
We’re dancing on the grasshoppers—
All glory to our King!
