Go and Build My House

Original Music: For the Fruit of All Creation (Ar Hyd Y Nos); Traditional Welsh Melody
Haggai 1:2-14

Go and build my house, my treasure; thus says the Lord.
You have sought your own self-pleasure; thus says the Lord.
Consider your sowing, reaping; frustrated the life your seeking.
Go and build my house, my treasure; thus says the Lord.

All the work and goods you purchase; God blows away.
While God’s work becomes a token, time yet for play?
Give yourself to higher callings, for the ones in sin, still falling.
Go and build my house, my treasure; thus says the Lord.

I am with you as you seek me with all your heart.
Take the courage to believe me with all your heart.
For obeying stirs God’s spirit as the people turn to fear Him.
Go and build my house, my treasure; thus says the Lord.
