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
