Jeremiah

Jeremiah speaking truth so raw
Prophesying the future saw what you saw
Mourning the city the walls broke down 
Judahs tears fell no king wore the crown 
You warned them loud but they hush the sound
The words you carried shook the ground 
Exile coming chains in your verse
A nation ignored and faced the curse
Scrolls burned up but the truth won't fade
You stood alone though they tried to evade
From the prison cell thoughts still soared
Hope in the ruins faith restored 
Potter's wheel spinning shaping the clay
Broken vessels they'll face the day
Tears and trials they didn't believe 
But the promise of return you conceived 
Oh Jeremiah you spoke with fire
Against the liars the ones conspire
A voice in the wind a truth untamed 
The world despise you but they know your name 
Jeremiah spoke with fire in his soul 
Words of thunder that would take their toll
To a nation blinded hearts made of stone 
His voice rang loud they wouldn't be alone
Like clay in the hands of a potter you be
He warned of the wrath but couldn't see
Broken cisterns cracked and dry
But living water flows he testified 
Tears feel heavy the weeper wouldn't quit 
But a fires in my heart and i can't sit
Chains can't bind what the truth he writes
Through the shadows hope ignite
Fortress of words tower of mite
Jeremiah stood in the darkest night 
Seek the ancient paths the call
The call even in exile he stood tall 
Stand up strong hear the prophets cry
Words of truth that piece the sky
From the ashes hope will rise
Jeremiah's vision never dies
