[Lament I] Hear the funeral while the city still sings, A nation has fallen beneath pleasant things. Seek me and live, not Bethel’s crowded stone, Not Gilgal’s road where the heart stays alone. [Refrain] You hate the rebuke that stands in the gate, Build houses of stone on the backs of the poor. [Lament II] Your songs fill the room, but I will not hear, When bribes close the court and the weak disappear. Let judgment run down as waters, Righteousness surge like a never-failing stream. [Hope Turn] Woe to the ease that reclines beside sorrow, Drinks from full bowls and forgets Joseph’s wound. Seek good, hate evil, establish the right, Or the day you desire will arrive without light. [Final Chorus] You hate the rebuke that stands in the gate, Build houses of stone on the backs of the poor. Seek good, hate evil, establish the right, Or the day you desire will arrive without light.
