EZRA & NEHEMIAH – From the Word to the Wall by Bro H
Verse 1 The scroll was opened in the square As morning met the sound The words once lost were lifted high As Ezra uttered the sound The people stood and heard the law Forgotten through the years And hearts were stirred as mercy fell Through repentance and tears Chorus From the word to the wall From the heart to the hand Truth must be lived If a people will stand Not by might, not by name But obedience shown Yahweh dwells with His people When His ways are their own Verse 2 Nehemiah rose where rubble lay And shame had long remained He set the gates, restored the breach And called the people trained The builders labored side by side With purpose, calm, and care One hand held fast the working tool One hand the watchful sword Chorus From the word to the wall From the heart to the hand Truth must be lived If a people will stand Faith that speaks but never walks Will always fall apart Yahweh builds His dwelling place Within the faithful heart Verse 3 The voices mocked, the threats arose The pressure never ceased Yet prayer was set as constant guard While duty was increased They did not wait for safer days Nor rest till work was done They built because obedience Is never overcome Verse 4 And in the fullness of His time The Word took mortal breath Not stone nor scroll, but flesh and bone To conquer sin and death He walked the streets they once restored He taught beside the gate The city shaped by faithful hands Prepared the path of faith Final Chorus From the law to the life From the shadow to flame The promise stood fulfilled in Him Though the world never changed Not a house of lifted stones But hearts made clean and new The dwelling place of Yahweh now Is built in those made true Closing / Bridge The pattern stands before us still As time moves swiftly on A people called to hear and do Not blend where truth is gone For every age must choose its stand And walk the narrow way The house of God is built again When we obey
