The walls are high but the cracks run deep
A lion's den where the wicked sleep
Chariot's flash like lightning’s streak
The city's roar now starts to weep
Floodgates open justice pours
Rivers rise to settle old scores
Iron melts where the fire devours
Nineveh falls in its final hours
Your merchants glittered like stars in the sky
But gold won't matter when rivers run dry
Blood in the streets where the warriors lie
Echoes of pride turn into a sigh
God was slow but He's never blind
A thousand warnings left behind
The Lord is good but He draws the line
The reckoning comes in His own time
The earth quakes the mountains shakes
Every stronghold starts to break
Who can stand when His wrath arrives
Patience runs but the truth survives
Nineveh cries but the judgment’s near
Justice thunders and the skies clear
The book of Nahum
Clouds roll heavy they crack like a whip
Justice ain't quiet it don't let you slip
Mountains quake rivers run red
Truth don't sleep it haunts the bed
You built your throne on sinking sand
Promises crumble in your hand
Kings and liars can't outrun
When the trumpet blows you face the sun
Can you hear it can you feel it
The reckoning's here no way to conceal it
Walls of gold can't stop the flood
Greed soaked robes still stain with blood
Your power's paper in a burning wind
The fire's lit it'll find your sin
The lion roared but his teeth are gone
Pride's a truth no one sings for long
Warnings carved in the lightning’s flash
Repent or fall in the coming crash
Unshaken ground it's coming down
You can't hide when the heavens frown
Unshaken ground it's breaking through
The weight of wrong comes back to you
The book of Nahum
Storm clouds roll like a battle cry
Mountains tremble rivers run dry
The Lord's in the whirlwind His fire burns high
Who can stand when He walks the sky
The earth quakes under His heavy hand
Nations crumble kingdoms dread
Justice flows where the wicked bled
No hiding place when the truth is said
Shields of silver swords of flame
Enemies scatter at His name
Their walls will fall their pride's to blame
Their empire's ash their power shame
The lion's den now cold and bare
Their roars silenced none to spare
The oppressed rise the chains won't wear
Freedom's call is in the air
He sees the tears He hears the cries
No evil act escapes His eyes
The tables turn the truth won't die
The righteous lift their banner high
God's justice rains it don't delay
Every wrong He rights someday
Vengeance comes the debts are paid
The judge of all won't turn away
The book of Nahum
