Haggai Led the Way
Parody of "Baby, I Love Your Way" by Peter Frampton
(Haggai 1:1-2:23; Ezra 5:1-2, 6:14; Hebrews 12:26)
Haggie!
He shattered Jerusalem before their eyes
And removed them across the way
In 70 years they returned to their lives
For to raise up their city
But don't hesitate -- 'cause your Lord won't wait
Hey ay ay yeah
Ooh, Haggai led the way every day
When the temple it was delayed – and he'd say:
Gotta deal with this right away – ay yay ay ay heh
Two appeared in time to guide those guys
With the help of some diatribes
Brother Haggai would prophesy four times
Never needed wonders and signs
Said don't hesitate -- 'cause your Lord won't wait
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-yeah
Ooh, Haggai led the way every day
When the temple was underway – ooh ooh ooh
'Cause he preached to them night and day -- ooh yeah eh eh heh
But don't hesitate -- 'cause your Lord won't wait
I can see the prophet Zechariah
Around the page -- they're unified
How they tag-teamed I read in Ezra
In chapter 5:1 -- yeah, they teamed up
Said don't hesitate -- 'cause your Lord won't wait
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey-yeah
Ooh, Haggai led the way, Ezra said
When the temple it was remade – ooh ooh ooh ooh
But he'd need Zechariah's aid
Ooh, Haggai led the way every day
In the temple-construction stage – ooh ooh ooh ooh
Go and read his two-chapter page – -- yeah eh eh heh
