This watercolor painting was done by Alison Schroeer -
a great textbook illustrator - just for this cover. The
concept is taken from Ezekiel 37:5-6 "I will make
breath enter you, and you will come to life. I will
attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and
cover you with skin: I will put breath in you, and you
will come to life. Then you will know that I am the
Lord". The bat is a Mexican free-tailed bat - the same
species of bat heard on the Tourniquet song Bats. This
cover perhaps illustrates best the Tourniquet message -
"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds".
Psalm 147:3
