Where the songs go in Habakkuk
The 10 songs here set 3 of the 4 movements in Habakkuk to music: “How Long Shall I Cry” (Habakkuk 1), “The Just Shall Live by His Faith” (Habakkuk 2) and “God Came from Teman” (Habakkuk 3:1–15). Others take the book as a whole.
How Long Shall I Cry (Habakkuk 1). This prophet does not address the nation.
The Just Shall Live by His Faith (Habakkuk 2). He says he will stand upon his watch and see what God answers him, which is the best line in Scripture about how to wait.
God Came from Teman (Habakkuk 3:1–15). The last chapter is a psalm with musical directions attached, and it is a deliberate act of memory.
Not in song here yet: “Although the Fig Tree Shall Not Blossom”.
