Haggai

The prophet spoke with the fire in his bones

Haggai’s words ringing out in ancient tones

Rebuild the house it's time to come back home

Let the temple rise from the dust and stone

You work for gold but your pockets stay thin

Plant your seeds but no harvest comes in

Focus on your house but let me begin

Build the temple first let the blessings in

Feel the weight of the mission in the air

Stop chasing treasures that take you nowhere

The heavens will open if you dare declare

God's work first then you'll see his care

Zerubbabel lead them with your might

Joshua stand and ignite the fight

The people stirred and embraced the light

Building his home made the wrongs turn right

Brick by brick we'll rise again

Make it holy on this land of men

The glory of the house will never end

Haggai's voice like a guiding friend

Haggai stepped in with a message so divne

Telling us to rebuild don't waste the time

The house of the Lord left in dust and neglect

He spoke with fire calling for respect

You got your houses but his lays bare

Paneled walls while you don't care

Y'all sow the seeds but it won't just grow

Until you honor him the blessings won't flow

Haggai said consider your ways

Think of the work the effort that pays

When his house is full his spirit slays

Changed forever in his holy gaze

The heavens withheld the dew and the rain

Crops fell short livestock felt pain

But the remnant listened they heard him well

God moving through the prophet they could tell

Build it up raise it tall

Answer the voice heard the call

Glory returns when we give our all

Brick by brick we'll never let it fall
