Seventy years God remembered his people Babylon let

them go home

Cyrus

heard a word he did not choose God had stirred

his heart to lose the chains Fifty thousand souls

walked out of Babylon Back to holy ground through dust

and plain Bring us back Lord

Bring us back to you

Every stone we lay is an act of faith

In the God who keeps his word

They lay, lay the

stones And the old man wept. The young ones shouted

when the trumpets rang.

Till Haggai rose and spoke the word of God.

And the people built again.

Bring us back Lord.

Bring us back to you.

Every stone we lay is an act of faith in the

God who keeps his word.

Ezra came with the law in his hands The people

fell and wept upon the stone He is good

His love endures He is good

His love endures
